Eagles of North America

This free program will feature our National Symbol, the LIVE bald eagle, and the LIVE golden eagle. With our friends from Dickerson Park Zoo, we will find out what factors contributed to the demise of the bald eagle population and what conservation efforts worked to remove the bald eagle from the endangered species list. We will also compare the bald eagle with the golden eagle. Specific characteristics will help to determine the difference between a juvenile bald eagle and the mature golden eagle.
