Meet Our Animal Ambassadors

At Owl's Hill, our animal ambassadors play a vital role in our education programs, giving visitors an up-close look at some of our native wildlife.

Owl's Hill is permitted by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency to keep native wildlife for education. All our ambassadors are unable to care for themselves in the wild because of injury or habituation to humans.
