  • World Bird Sanctuary – Live Owl Demonstration

    World Bird Sanctuary – Live Owl Demonstration

    Come out to the Augusta Town Square and see Cecil a Great Horned Owl from the World Bird Sanctuary 

    World Bird Sanctuary was founded in 1977 by Walter C. Crawford Jr. to provide the St. Louis area with a hospital for sick or injured raptors. As the Sanctuary grew, so did our mission. Now located on 305 acres of Missouri hardwood forest in partnership with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, World Bird Sanctuary is home to over 200 animals representing over 60 species from all around the world. What began as a small rehabilitation center has grown into an internationally renowned rehabilitation, education, and conservation organization.
