Welcome to Hoo's Woods!

Hoo's Woods is a non-profit 501(c)(3) raptor education project located in Southern Wisconsin. Active since 1998 our mission is:

  • To inform and educate in the schools, scouts, community organizations, and general public regarding wildlife and habitat.
  • To represent well our wildlife, those that cannot speak for themselves.
  • To make education both meaningful and fun, while creating an atmosphere that fosters respect and stewardship of all living things.
  • To provide an understanding and appreciation between man and wildlife and the need for co-existence.

    They're Back

    I'm pleased to inform you of the completion of our latest raptor education poster featuring the peregrine
    falcon. I developed this project with Wisconsin wildlife artist, Jonathan Wilde. This poster addresses the
    importance of raptors in the environment and the strict state and federal protection afforded these species.

    Thank you WE Energies Foundation and Alliant Energy Foundation

    We received grants from these corporations that will enable us to continue our educational programs and
    raptor rehabilitation. We will be able to improve our facilities, purchase equipment, build a new eagle cage,
    provide education materials for students and classrooms, expand our display, and provide quality care for
    the birds at our center. Please contact us if you are interested in helping with a project.
