Teton Raptor Center Opened June 2009!

Teton Raptor Center welcomed over 600 community members to celebrate our June 21 Grand Opening at the Hardeman Barns in Wilson, WY. Visitors were treated to a flighted bird demonstration and the chance to get up close and personal with our resident raptors.  Guests enjoyed a warm welcome from our founder Roger Smith, live music, a barbecue supper, and lots of fun children's activities.  The Center opened for public tours from July 1 - Sept. 30th.  We will re-open for tours in 2010, schedule to be forthcoming. Our phone number is 307-203-2551.

Teton Raptor Center is located at the old Hardeman Ranch in Wilson, Wyoming, just 7 miles from the town of Jackson. See a map and more information on our Visit page.
