Ravens Mascots Edgar, Allan, and Poe are available for appearances in the community. Submit a request to have a Ravens mascot appear at your next event.
There is no doubt that the Baltimore Ravens are one of the top teams in the NFL because of their head coaches and team coordination but these are not the only reasons for the success of the Ravens. The Ravens have been led by many great coaches and John Harbaugh is their current head coach; he joined the Ravens in 2008 and is the longest-serving head coach in the Raven s history.
In addition to the mascot performances, we have also invited special guest performers who will wow the audience with their dance skills. This will add an extra element of excitement to the evening and provide the opportunity for our mascots to learn from and interact with talented dancers from outside our school community. **Admission to the Mascot Dance Extravaganza will be $5 for adults and $3 for students.
Baltimore Ravens Rise and Conquer
Get to know Rise and Conquer, our two Ravens who live at The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore! Rise and Conquer, along with over 65 other animal ambassadors, live at the Animal Embassy and travel all throughout Maryland. Rise and Conquer love going to Ravens gamedays, where you can see them before kickoff on RavensWalk or on the sidelines during games. They love meeting Ravens fans at the Zoo, but also like to travel to schools and even the beach!
Rise and Conquer are brothers who hatched from the same clutch on April 16, 2009 in Alabama.
The birds arrived at The Maryland Zoo together in June of 2009. They were raised at by members of the Maryland Zoo staff at their homes for several weeks so that the birds could be hand fed every few hours and begin their training. Because ravens can easily bond with only one person when they are young, the Zoo was careful to keep rotating their housing schedule. They needed to recognize and relate to several handlers and easily accept changes in their environments.
Rise and Conquer live at the Animal Embassy; a division of the Zoo's Animal Department, which houses and travels over 65 Animal Ambassadors. Once they moved into the Animal Embassy full time, they began a training program and acclimation process common for our Ambassadors. Because they are such intelligent birds by nature, the Zoo is, to this day, constantly challenged to keep them engaged and enriched.
Animal Ambassadors travel to support Maryland Zoo educational and promotional missions. This includes school visits, as well as local and national media appearances. Rise and Conquer have attended each Ravens home game since 2009 and have made many special appearances at Ravens events. They also make regular appearances on Zoo grounds to visit with Ravens fans throughout the year.
Conquer is a bolder bird, but also more interested in his handlers. He is always the first one to come for food. Rise is the more cautious of the two brothers. He will usually only go up to a new object or food item once Conquer has checked it out.
Quick Facts:
- The birds are extremely intelligent and inquisitive.
- They are very interested in touching and tearing objects with their strong, sharp beaks.
- They are able to notice the smallest of changes in their environments, which is why we are constantly moving them around so that they can easily acclimate to change.
- Corvids have the ability to mimic sound and have been taught to speak, though they do not have the range of parrots.
- Our ravens are from Africa; the ownership of North American common ravens is prohibited by law.
- Ravens are some of the most intelligent birds in the world, and thought by some to be on par with apes.
- Ravens have the ability to differentiate between individuals.
- Ravens "cache" (hide) their food and come back for it later. Even though they have a steady supply of food at The Maryland Zoo, they still exhibit this behavior. They are scavengers by nature and hiding food ensures they will not go hungry.
When we think of one of the best teams in the NFL the name Baltimore Ravens certainly does come to mind. Baltimore Ravens are a professional American football team which is based in Baltimore. The Ravens were established in 1996 after Art Modell, the owner of the Cleveland Browns announced his plans to relocate the franchise from Cleveland to Baltimore. Modell as a part of the settlement had to leave the Browns' history, team colors, and records in Cleveland. Although Art Modell was allowed to take his team to Baltimore, he would then form an expansion team which is now known as the Baltimore Ravens.

So mark your calendars and join us on October 30th for a night you won't want to miss! We look forward to seeing you there! Sincerely, [Your Name].
Reviews for "The Mascot Dance Revolution: Changing the Game, One Routine at a Time"
1. Emily - 1 star
I was really disappointed with "Mascot dance extravaganza". The performance lacked energy and creativity. The dancers seemed unenthusiastic and the choreography was lackluster. The costumes were also unimpressive, with some looking worn-out and outdated. Overall, it was a forgettable experience and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for an exciting and engaging dance show.
2. John - 2 stars
"Mascot dance extravaganza" fell short of my expectations. The choreography felt repetitive and the dancers lacked precision in their movements. The music choices were also questionable, with some songs not aligning well with the theme of the show. Additionally, the transitions between different dance numbers were awkward and disrupted the flow of the performance. I had hoped for a more captivating and well-executed dance extravaganza, but unfortunately, this show didn't deliver.
3. Samantha - 2 stars
I found "Mascot dance extravaganza" to be underwhelming. The dancers lacked synchronization, which was evident in several group routines. There were also moments where it seemed like some performers forgot their steps or were out of sync with the music. The overall production quality was also disappointing, with poor stage lighting and sound issues. It's a shame because I had high hopes for this dance show, but it fell short of my expectations.
