Emeritus Professor Erik Stauber devoted four decades to caring for these birds and other wildlife. The WSU Raptor Club, which was founded in 1981, is a nonprofit volunteer organization whose members educate the public about raptor conservation. Club members not only visit schools, fairs, and other community events, they also spend countless hours raising money for these extraordinary birds. Now, because of the generosity of an anonymous foundation, we will be completing the third and final phase of the mews renovation.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vetmed.wsu.edu\/outreach\/raptors\">Raptor Rehabilitation Program<\/a> relies entirely on the support of private individuals, public agencies, and businesses to provide raptor care, so we couldn\u2019t do what we do without you.
