The aim of the presented project is to improve the practical and theoretical education of the subject Falconry and rehabilitation of wild birds of prey for students of the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy in Košice, with the aim of expanding students' knowledge and skill set within this specialist field. We plan to achieve this goal in two ways: 1. By establishing an aviary specifically designed to enable students of UVLF KE to work with birds of prey. This will allow students to learn about the basics of Falconry, the principles of handling as well as the rehabilitation of such birds. This will be done by organizing a series of workshops, ultimately leading to an increased level of education of veterinarians and breeders of birds of prey about this topic. 2. By producing new study material in both printed and CD form.
