We were treated to a behind the scenes “field trip” to the world renown Natural History Museum.

Spent the morning with the amazing staff of the University of Minnesota Raptor center. They care for approximately 1000 injured raptors each year. In addition birds such as Lutsen, an immature bald eagle, Maxine a 20 year old eagle and Lois the great horned owl visit classrooms throughout Minnesota. They are educating kids on the impacts of habitat loss and importance of raptors to healthy eco-system. Thanks to all staff, volunteers and supporters for ensuring strong populations of all raptors. #raptorcenter #uofmraptorcenter

A day late, but didn’t want to miss recognizing the regal Bengal tiger.
Bengal tigers can reach 13 feet in length and 660 pounds. They are generally solitary animals, often requiring large contiguous areas of habitat. Their historical range has been severely reduced primarily due to habitat loss and human population growth. A global goal to double the world tiger population by 2022 is shaping up to succeed. The success is attributed to formal protections against poaching and habitat destruction.
