= The History of Hawk Mountain =

The worlds first Hawk refuge, ever. It was first used by hunters, gunning down hawks every day. There were a number of reasons for this act. One reason was that the people that hunted them thought the hawks were pests, therefore shooting them down. Another reason people shot them was because farmers did not like them on their property. It really came to the attention of many animal activists, and soon the police started to enforce, but it was useless. Finally, an activist purchased Hawk Mountain, and executed getting all the hunter off the mountain, and creating a hawk sanctuary. By the looks of it now it has changed a great deal since it first opened.

= Our Expirence = **At Hawk Mountain we went to the North Lookout. We saw a couple hawks while we were at North Lookout. We saw about 10 hawks while we were there. The river of Rocks was cool to look at when we had lunch. It was a great experience for all of us.**
