Inside the Woodland Park Zoo, at the Raptor Flight Program, a red-tailed hawk is run through its paces by the trainer, a 20-minute daily exhibition is a delight to young and old alike. The hawk was rescued from a collision with a car where it lost an eye. It cannot be released back into the wild as it has lost the depth perception required to survive.
