Science doesn't get much wilder than this. In this RRU raptor lab, Environmental Science students met real birds of prey, dissected owl pellets and explored how toxins move through food webs.

They also learned how species like the Barred Owl are changing ecosystems in the Pacific Northwest — and what that means for biodiversity.

Watch the RRU raptor lab in action. Huge thanks to Island Raptors and Rocky Point Bird Observatory for giving our students an unforgettable experience.
