About this organization
Mission
Conserving native wildlife and their habitats through research, education and collaboration
About
Focusing on native species of wildlife, the society reintroduces, manages, and monitors wild populations of animals. The society restored a population of bald eagles in central California, along with partners, and continues to release eagles and other birds of prey as needed. The society is actively reintroducing California condors to central California. Working closely with landowners and government, the society has been effective at encouraging a switch from lead to nonlead ammunition in key condor areas since the ingestion of spent lead ammunition remains the greatest threat to their recovery. The society is also participating in a collaboration to restore condors to the Pacific Northwest and building a program-wide, inter-agency, online database to facilitate sharing and collaboration.
