About the Adopt a Raptor:
Adopt-a-Raptor is a program for the rehabilitation of raptor species and other large endangered wild birds for release back to the wild where they belong to.
The program is inspired by "Fly the Vulture Home" project that since January 2007, had been the first rehabilitation and release of a famous Cinereous Vulture, named "Anakin the Vulture" and other four starved Himalayan Griffons in Thailand. Operated by Kasetsart University Raptor Rehabilitation Unit (KURRU) at Kasetsart University Veterinary Teaching Hospital,
Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (KUVTH, FVM) in partnership with the
Bird Conservation Society of Thailand (BCST) and
Thai Raptor Group (TRG), it is initiated to offer opportunities for birders or members of the public in general to take part in rehabilitation of injured or weak wild birds that fall down to earth due to starvation or loss of direction, so that their life would be extended and they could return to live on their own as wild birds.
