What We Do


At Wild Wings Raptor Rehabilitation (WWRR), our all-volunteer organization's mission is to treat, rehabilitate and return injured and/or orphaned raptors to their natural habitat whenever possible.

The goal of any wildlife rehabilitation center is to bring the animal back to health to be released back to the wild. Only when the animal is as healthy as possible is that determination made. When release is not possible, every attempt is made to find the bird a home in an education facility. Wild Wings has sent birds to permanent homes as far away as New York and California, and as close to home as Sunriver Nature Center, the Oregon Zoo, and the High Desert Museum in Bend.

Based in Sisters, Oregon, we were established to serve the Central and Eastern Oregon regions after the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife indicated a need in this area for raptor care. We care for orphaned and injured raptor species that include eagles, hawks, owls, falcons, osprey, and vultures.

Our major admission categories for raptors include:
Collision with vehicles, windows, barbed wire fencing, etc
Fractures and Dislocations
Dehydration and Emaciation
Lead Poisoning
Open wounds and Infection
Gunshot and Pellet Gun Wounds
Internal Parasites and Disease
Electrocution
