Inspiring you to embark on an unforgettable journey, discovering the beauty and wonder of Peregrine Falcon in its natural habitat

Discover Tours

Peregrine falcons are one of the fastest animals in the world, reaching speeds up to 200 mph during a dive. They have been recorded at diving through the air at more than 100 meters per second.

These astonishing winged creatures can reach 25-30 feet in height and they weigh about 2 pounds on average.

Peregrines live all over the world but their populations are declining because of habitat destruction and pesticides like DDT which disrupts reproduction rates.
