American Eagle Foundation - History

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:

    The disadvantage of men not knowing the past is that they do not know the present. History is a hill or high point of vantage, from which alone men see the town in which they live or the age in which they are living.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
