Profile and mission

Falcon-Ed (BEAK) is the educational program of Falcon Environmental Inc. (FALCON), a company specializing in the art of modern falconry, training birds of prey, reproducing them for conservation and re-release, for ecological control of nuisance birds, for educational presentations, free-flying bird shows and film. To learn more about FALCON, visit our main site.

We at FALCON believe that even a privately owned company can do its part to aid in conservation and education. Created in 1989 by young environmentally conscious entrepreneurs with a passion for falconry and birds of prey, FALCON has grown and succeeded in becoming a well recognized leader in its field, in Quebec and abroad.

BEAK is an acronym that best describes what we do since our presentations center on Birds of prey and their Environment, promote Awareness and allow us to share our Knowledge with photos, artefacts and live birds.

Since 2020, Falcon-Ed is recognized by the government program – Culture à L’école, allowing classrooms to benefit from our program with financial support.
