Founded in 1987, Cascades Raptor Center is a non-profit nature center and wildlife hospital located in Eugene, Oregon. Through wildlife rehabilitation and public education, Cascades Raptor Center fosters a connection between people and birds of prey. Our goal is to help the human part of the natural community learn to value, understand, and honor the role of wildlife in preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the Pacific Northwest.

Wildlife Rehabilitation: As Lane County’s only licensed wildlife rehabilitator and the only raptor-specific rehabilitator in Oregon, CRC’s Wildlife Hospital provides a vital service for sick, injured, and orphaned birds of prey across the state. CRC’s hospital staff handles a variety of wildlife inquiries and emergencies daily, providing expert advice to the community and top-quality medical care for the region’s native raptor population. Have you found an injured or orphaned animal? Our hospital is open 7 days a week at no cost to the finder. Give us a call at 5410485-1320, ext. 2, or visit: https://cascadesraptorcenter.org/

Public Education: As the only publicly accessible raptor center in the state of Oregon, and with one of the largest native North American raptor collections in the Pacific Northwest, CRC provides tens of thousands of guests annually the opportunity to observe and interact with raptors first-hand while learning more about each species, their role in the environment, and the threats they currently face.
