Adopt Iris the Red-Tailed Hawk

$75.00

Iris was admitted into our Raptor Rescue program in 2022, after she was found with head trauma and a severe eye injury. Her left eye was completely sunken in, to the degree that our veterinarians initially didn’t think she would survive. Iris proved she was a fighter and was given a second chance at life. After healing from her injuries, she went to a falconer for training. Iris now lives with Quemado, another Red-tailed Hawk, after his long-time partner, Jamaica, passed over the Rainbow Bridge in 2023. She is named for the keen eyesight that most hawks have.
