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 (KURU) at Kasetsart University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine (KUFVM) in partnership with the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation; 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 by themselves as wild birds.
