点评:After three wildlife tours we found out about this place and wanted to try it out. The Raptors is in between a zoo and a wildlife tour. Almost all the birds were raised by humans. But they are wild and could choose to go back to the wild but choose not to because who could refuse a consistent meal?
We also chose to do the Closest Encounter experience which at $110 is not cheap but compared to wildlife tours it's very cheap. In over one hour we got to experience having an Aplomado Falcon (so cute), American Kestrel (stunning) and Harris's Hawk (majestic) land on our gloved hands like real falconers. We also got the chance to feed a Black Vulture which reminded me of my pet dog. It's a once in a lifetime experience.
We also went to two Flying Demonstrations which were really entertaining and educational. I appreciated seeing a Bald Eagle 🦅, a Barn Owl, an American Kestrel, a Barred Owl, and a Saker Falcon fly around and thrill the audience.
I would highly recommend The Raptors. Even without doing any of the experiences you can have an amazing time with the Flying Demonstrations, Talks, Exhibits, etc.

我们还选择了“最接近的接触”体验,110 美元并不便宜,但与野生动物之旅相比,它非常便宜。在一个多小时内,我们体验了一只黄隼(非常可爱)、美洲红隼(令人惊叹)和哈里斯鹰(雄伟)像真正的猎鹰者一样落在我们戴着手套的手上。我们还有机会喂食一只黑秃鹫,这让我想起了我的宠物狗。这是一生难得的经历。
我们还参加了两次飞行表演,非常有趣且具有教育意义。我很高兴看到白头鹰🦅、仓鸮、红隼、横斑林鸮和猎隼飞翔,让观众兴奋不已。
我强烈推荐猛禽。即使没有任何体验,你也可以通过飞行表演、讲座、展览等度过一段美妙的时光。
