Calabria hosts a naturalistic falconry center dedicated to birds of prey, located within the recently UNESCO-recognized Pollino area. This three-hour educational course offers a hands-on learning experience about various birds of prey and falconry. Visitors follow an interactive curriculum that covers environmental and rural topics while observing several raptor species. During the course, participants meet birds such as Shira, the eagle owl; Cloud, the barn owl; Zeus, the buzzard; and Abel, the golden eagle. The program includes a close encounter with Abel, where the sound of his heartbeat can be heard through the falconer's glove. The guide leads all activities, and guests have the opportunity to use the glove themselves to interact with the birds. This course focuses on the biological and naturalistic aspects of birds of prey rather than entertainment, making it unsuitable for those expecting a circus or zoo visit. It provides a detailed look at these animals' lives in a natural setting.
