2009 Oklahoma Wildlife Expo

The 2009 Oklahoma Wildlife Expo again proved to be another great event in which many of the outdoor activities available in Oklahoma were showcased for the public. This event was hosted by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation on the sprawling grounds of the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma. The expo continually attracts more than 30,000 visitors and has continued to grow every year since its inception in 2005. Throughout the years the Oklahoma Falconers’ booth has continued to be a crowd favorite.

Members of the Oklahoma Falconers’ Association volunteered their time throughout the three day event. Many brought their birds for the expo visitors to see and also answered questions about falconry. The expo is a wonderful way to introduce the public to the sport of falconry as it is practiced in Oklahoma. When it was all said and done over 42,000 people attended the Oklahoma Wildlife Expo this year.
