Lauren's presentation is entitled:


"Hunting with Eagles in Mongolia and South Africa:
Ancient and Modern Traditions in Eagle Falconry"


Lauren has been a falconer since age 14, and has been hunting with eagles for more than 10 years. She learned to fly captive bred golden eagles while living in Scotland as an exchange student, and learned to fly passage golden eagles as a Fulbright scholar in Mongolia. Since 2013 she has hunted with rehab golden eagles in the US and is currently finishing her PhD in Cultural Anthropology at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.


Most recently, Lauren spent six months in South Africa hunting with crowned eagles and has loved exploring the possibilities of African falconry.

I'm excited! I've been following Lauren on social media for a while, and she has rare experience. Can't wait to hear her speak!

Another NJFC winter field meet is in the book! We once again set an attendance record, we had 112 people at our banquet! Thank you to all of the out of state falconers that return every year and thank you to all of the new out of state falconers that made the trip! We had falconers all the way from Tennessee to Vermont & everywhere in between. Despite the weather not being ideal, we still took plenty of game! Swedesboro never disappoints with the amount of slips!

A big Thank You to Lauren McGough, Her presentation was outstanding! Lauren also took the time to answer questions, interact & take pictures with anyone that asked.
