New director for The Raptor Center

Julia Ponder, DVM, recently became executive director of The Raptor Center at The University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine in Minneapolis/St. Paul. If you're a BirdChick fan, then you're familiar with her volunteer work at The Raptor Center.

I'm rather jealous that Dr. Ponder gets to do things like look into a Bald Eagle's eye. How cool is that?


This might be a comprehensive list of raptor rehabilitation programs. Do you know of or volunteer for one that isn't on the list? Then suggest an addition to the list.

In case you're not a fan of raptors, that list appears within the larger context of wildlife rehab programs. Volunteer opportunities abound!
