About this organization
Mission
The Peregrine Fund works globally to conserve biological diversity and enhance environmental health by working with birds. This is accomplished by restoring species in jeopardy, conserving habitat, educating students, training conservationists, providing factual information to the public, and accomplishing scientific investigations. We have assisted on conservation projects in more than 40 countries. We strongly believe in cooperative efforts involving individuals, organizations, corporations, and government. By focusing on birds and their ecological requirements, and providing sufficient protection to sustain viable populations, we are using birds to provide an umbrella of protection for the diversity of life and the entire ecosystem associated with them.
About
California Condors remain critically endangered and The Peregrine Fund manages the largest captive population in the world. Only 22 individuals existed in 1982, but through captive breeding and production of condors in the wild, there are more than 500 in the world today, with more in the wild than in captivity. To date, we have released 210 condors, confirmed 40 wild-hatched young and with continued releases and close management, we are holding steady in overall restoration efforts and making annual progress. A milestone event occurred in Fall 2019 - the 1,000th chick was hatched, and it also became the first chick to successfully fledge from Zion National Park. Lead poisoning remains the principal mortality agent and lead-caused deaths continue at unsustainable rates. Movements and behavior of the flock of 96 condors in northern Arizona and southern Utah are daily monitored due to this ongoing threat. Management agencies in Arizona and Utah continue efforts to reduce lead available during respective big-game hunting seasons; more than 80% of deer hunters in each state hunting within the immediate range of the condor have taken action to reduce lead exposure. Additional sources of exposure have been discussed and are being addressed to eliminate lead as a threat and allow condors to reach long-term sustainable levels and be considered fully restored.
