To achieve this mission, UQROP has two mandates: the first is to structure a Quebec network for the care of wild birds of prey found injured, sick or orphaned. UQROP’s second mandate is to bring birds of prey to the attention of the general public, through a travelling educational program and the Chouette à voir! website, which is open to visitors.
REHABILITATION OF ORPHANED ANIMALS
