World Bird Sanctuary

The World Bird Sanctuary is located within Lone Elk County Park in Valley Park, Missouri on 305 acres of forested land that once belonged to the US Army. The Sanctuary was founded in 1977 by Ornithologist Walter C. Crawford, Jr. who saw a need for a facility for the preservation and study of birds of prey. The Sanctuary has a wildlife hospital, educational programs, nature trails, picnic facilities, live animal presentations in their amphitheater and live birds on display, such as Bald Eagles, Falcons, Owls, and even a reptile or two.
