Nova - War Eagle VII - The Symbol of Auburn University

Before each home football game in Jordan-Hare Stadium, beginning in 2000, the battle cry 'War Eagle' can be heard from Auburn fans as Nova, War Eagle VII, or Spirit, gracefully circles the stadium and lands determinedly at midfield as an unwavering icon of the Auburn Spirit.

Nova lives at the Southeastern Raptor Center, a facility at the College of Veterinary Medicine, located on the campus of Auburn University, by permission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

The Southeastern Raptor Center's mission is to promote wildlife conservation with the educational use of birds of prey, to rehabilitate ill and injured raptors, and to collaborate in raptor research efforts. The center, part of the College of Veterinary Medicine, treats hundreds of birds of prey annually from species such as bald eagles, golden eagles, peregrine falcons, great horned owls and red-tailed hawks.
