About us: Freedom is a game-changing conservation movement that seeks to protect and reintroduce threatened birds of prey through creative conservation methods, and generate global publicity for the cause.
Founded by world renowned falconer Jacques-Olivier Travers and developed in cooperation with conservationist Ronald Menzel, Freedom is centred on an exceptional breeding facility in Thonon, France. It is here that Jacques-Olivier teaches birds of prey born in captivity to hunt and fly by skiing, kayaking and paragliding with them. They can then be reintroduced to nature with much better chances of survival and reproduction than with the traditional "hacking" method.
Freedom's methods are filmed and have subsequently harnessed global media attention. By creating this unique & compelling content, Freedom seeks to engage a new generation of conservationists, catalyzing popular support for the protection of nature worldwide.A race: Victor the Eagle versus BASE-jumper Géraldine FasnachtFREEDOMCONSERVATION2015-11-05 | ...White-tailed Eagle POV flight - Chamonix, Mont BlancFREEDOMCONSERVATION2015-08-31 | After its spectacular flights over London, Paris, Cologne and Dubai the Freedom eagles have yet again taken to the air and embarked on a new challenge. Between August 26th-29th a white-tailed eagle and a bald eagle, both fitted with a Sony Action Cam Mini, flew over the Mont Blanc massif, capturing never-before seen, unique footage during the most difficult foot race in Europe, the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc®.
In collaboration with Columbia Sportswear, a Freedom Conservation and UTMB® partner, the eagle recorded a superb bird's eye perspective of the trail runners tackling one of the most renowned single-stage mountain ultra-marathons, which stretches over 170 km across Switzerland, Italy and France, with the 4.810 meter Mont Blanc as one of the most iconic background settings.

He has developed a technique which could revolutionise reintroduction programmes for bird species. The principle of this method is simple but has however never been attempted: it‘s about freeing adult eagles, born in captivity, after having taught them to fly and hunt by using extreme sports. Whether he goes out skiing, paragliding or, as can be seen in this movie, Nordic skiing, the aim is to familiarize the Eagles with ways well know to his non-captive counterparts.Teaching Eagles to FlyFREEDOMCONSERVATION2015-02-18 | Did you know that Freedom Conservation's founder, Jacques-Olivier Travers, uses extreme sports to teach Eagles born in captivity the art of flight? An important aspect of life outside of a cage, for any bird including the White-tailed Eagle, is the ability to fly. In this video, you can see Jacques-Olivier familiarise Freedom's Victor the Eagle with a capacity for Alpine pursuits, a way familiar to his non-captive counterparts. By skiing and paragliding with Victor, he lets him experience the sensation of the air over his wings in anticipation of his first venture into flight.Speed Skating with an EagleFREEDOMCONSERVATION2015-02-16 | Freedom's Victor the Eagle is racing against speedskater Martin Hänggi at the natural ice speed skating rink in Davos, the biggest and one of the fastest open-air rinks in the world.

Freedom - un projet unique d'envergure internationale, audiovisuel, scientifique et événementiel - Plus d'information sur: freedom-themovie.com A l'heure où une espèce animale (ou végétale) disparaît toutes les 17 minutes dans le monde, où la présence de l‘animal sauvage à nos côtés est sans cesse mise à mal, un homme s‘est donné pour mission de réintroduire en France et en Suisse, le plus grand aigle d‘Europe. Ce géant, appelé Pygargue à queue blanche, a disparu de notre ciel en 1959, victime de la folie des hommes. Il a mis au point une technique qui devrait s’avérer très précieuse pour les programmes de réintroduction à venir. Le principe est simple: il s‘agit de rendre la liberté à des couples d’aigles adultes, nés en captivité, après leur avoir appris à voler et à chasser. Ce projet innovant combine un volet Cinéma et TV, avec la réalisation du film « FREEDOM – l’envol d’un aigle » , l'organisation de plusieurs événements d'envergure internationale ainsi qu’un volet scientifique et éducatif associé à la création du plus grand centre européen de reproduction de l'aigle pêcheur à Sciez (Haute Savoie). Un programme qui contribue aux efforts de conservation de la vie sauvage à travers le monde et qui est porté par une belle histoire dans laquelle chacun de nous pourra se retrouver. Projet en production écrit pour Ushuaïa TV par Jacques-Olivier TRAVERS et Muriel BARRA. Sortie prévue début 2015.

Jacques-Olivier Travers, referred to by the media as "the man who teaches eagles to fly" dreams to bring them back.
He has developed a technique which could be priceless for reintroduction program of bird species. The principle of this technique is simple: freeing adult eagles, born in captivity, after teaching them to fly and hunt.
SOS - Save Our Species (SOS), supports Jacques Olivier. SOS is an initiative launched by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) to protect species threatened with extinction, as well as their habitats and the people who depend on them. Together they have created FREEDOM. This unique conservation project combines the creation of the film "FREEDOM" along with the publication of a book, the organisation of several major international events, a scientific and educational aspect associated with the creation of the largest European centre for the reproduction of the Sea Eagle in Sciez (Haute Savoie, France).
In general, this project also supports wildlife conservation efforts throughout the world.
