Boris (Great Gray Owl)
Boris was found north of Anchorage after an unknown collision. He suffered trauma to his right wrist which left him unable to fully extend his wing. Because of this injury he can no longer fly and would be unable to survive on his own in the wild. He is still wild and is not comfortable working in close proximity to people, so he is now on display in his own outdoor habitat alongside other “Raptors-in-Residence” at the Alaska Raptor Center.
