History
The American Eagle Foundation was founded in 1985 by a group of wildlife experts and concerned citizens to help the Bald Eagle return to America's skies. The American Eagle Foundation started by providing assistance with private, state, and federal Eagle rehabilitation programs. They expanded to offering full-service rehab care and facilities for the Eagle. In 1991, the American Eagle Foundation began using permanently disabled Eagles in their care for education programs. Since then, they have educated millions of people throughout the United States on conservation of the eagle.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“If usually the “present age” is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as the history of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.”
—Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
“The principle office of history I take to be this: to prevent virtuous actions from being forgotten, and that evil words and deeds should fear an infamous reputation with posterity.”
—Tacitus (c. 55–117)
