The Iowa Raptor Project, formerly known as the Macbride Raptor Project, is a collaborative initiative between the University of Iowa College of Education and Kirkwood Community College. Their mission is to engage students and the community in the conservation of birds of prey and their habitats through research and educational programs.

Visitors can explore the outdoor facility to view 17 unreleasable raptors native to Iowa, participate in self-guided tours, or book guided tours for a more in-depth experience. Additionally, the Iowa Raptor Project offers a Traveling Raptor Program, bringing live raptor presentations to schools and organizations within a specified distance from their location in Solon, Iowa.
