    Tips

    June 14, 2023

    The Carolina Raptor Center is one of the largest facilities in the area dedicated to educating the public about birds of prey and treating injured wild raptors. Located within the Latta Nature Reserve, the Carolina Raptor Center features an accessible, flat, three-quarter mile walking trail and zoological facility that takes you past more thirty birds of prey, who were either too injured to be released back into the wild, or are currently receiving treatment and rehabilitation. While there is also a large hospital facility on the premises, it is not open to the public for the health and safety of all. Tickets can be purchased at the gift shop and you do not need to book in advance. Please visit their website for more information: carolinaraptorcenter.org
