This series of episodes will focus on creance flying as a reconditioning technique for raptors as the last step before release back into the wild. Host Gail is joined by Lori Arent, Assistant Director of The Raptor Center (TRC) at the University of Minnesota for an interesting set of conversations about creance flying. They discuss Lori's journey from interest in animals to a passion for raptors. She became a falconer early in her career at TRC to learn as much as possible about raptor flight and how that, coupled with her science background, led to the scientific studies on reconditioning raptors.
