The Beijing Raptor Rescue Center (BRRC) cares for sick, injured and lost wild birds of prey as well as those confiscated from illegal traders. It is one of IFAW's many conservation projects in China, designated by the Forestry Bureau as a "specialized raptor rescue center." In addition to rescuing, treating and rehabilitating raptors for release back into the wild, BRRC staff engages in education programs to publicize the plight of birds of prey in the Beijing area.
