This handsome stud right here is Diego! He was a Red-Tailed Hawk I had the pleasure of working with during my years at school. If you are new here, my first introduction to working with animals was working with Exotic Animals at an Animal Training Program at Moorpark College in California. Diego was one of the few birds I had the chance to work with. Diego weighed about 3.5 pounds and when "manning" him around the zoo that was the quickest way to kick off arm day, in between feeding your primate, giving zoo tours to the public and training sessions with fellow trainers.
