The Eagle Conservation Alliance (ECA), a global partnership of experts working to conserve eagles, is the first international organization focused exclusively on eagle conservation. The mission of the ECA is to share and enhance resources and knowledge in order to cooperatively understand and conserve the world of eagles. The primary goals are to improve management for conservation of existing eagle populations; recover and, when appropriate, reintroduce eagles to nature; conduct research; provide global advice and technical support; develop and distribute information; integrate native communities into conservation efforts, fundraise for priority initiatives; and build capacity for training in science and eagle management. ...

The Philippine Eagle Foundation firmly believes that the fate of our vanishing Philippine Eagle, the health of our environment, and the quality of Philippine life are inextricably linked. We are therefore committed to promote the survival of the Philippine Eagle, the biodiversity it represents, and the sustainable use of our forest resources for future generations to enjoy. ...

Since 2000, the Canadian Peregrine Foundation's mandate has been expanded to address the needs of threatened and endangered raptors of all kinds. In 2001 the first efforts were made toward issues of owl conservation. This section of the website will be growing over time as we become more involved with owls, and we welcome your comments and suggestions. ... [Information of the supplier]
Der Verband wurde 1981 zum Schutz unserer heimischen Eulen gegründet. Er führt mit Unterstützung der schleswig-holsteinischen Landesregierung Artenschutzprogramme für folgende Eulenarten im Lande durch: Raufußkauz (Aegolius funereus), Sperlingskauz (Glaucidium passerinum), Steinkauz (Athene noctua), Schleiereule (Tyto alba) und Uhu (Bubo bubo). Damit trägt der Landesverband Eulen-Schutz in Schleswig-Holstein ganz wesentlich zur Erfüllung der Verpflichtungen bei, die sich aus den europäischen Naturschutzrichtlinien (FFH und EG-Vogelschutzrichtlinie) ergeben. ...

For a long time breeding Bearded Vultures in captivity seemed almost impossible. Before the first successful reproductions at the Alpenzoo Innsbruck it was only in the twenties that a pair at Sofia Zoo had successfully raised chicks. One of the main problems was the difficulty in distinguishing male and female Bearded Vultures by external features. This hampered the formation of pairs. Because in the case when two males are put together, these behave like a pair, but, obviously, they produce no eggs. Today, by using new techniques, sex determination has become much easier. Within the project, all young Bearded Vultures are raised exclusively by parent birds. Raising by human "foster-parents" would lead to irreversible behavioural deficiencies. Only through the cooperation of zoos from all over Europe did the reintroduction project become possible. In some of these zoos today "grandchildren" of the first Bearded Vulture pairs are already breeding. Currently about 100 Bearded Vultures belong to the breeding stock of the project. The four release sites - situated at a distance of about 200-300 km from each other - are almost all in national parks or nature reserves. Bearded Vultures once occurred at each site. Also today, virtually unchanged natural habitats and extensive cliffs provide optimal conditions for Bearded Vultures. Large populations of chamois, red deer and ibex are a particular feature of the four sites. ... [Information of the supplier]
This project proposes a multi-year, worldwide project to resolve foundational aspects of taxonomy and conservation for the world’s owls. Work under this project is focused on six tasks: develop scientifically robust inventory techniques for locating owls and their nests; analyze the molecular systematics and phylogeny of owls using basically mtDNA but also ncDNA; acquire high-quality recordings of owl vocalizations, to assist in species identification; conduct analysis of the morphological aspects on new owl taxa found, to assist in identification; refine maps of owl species distributions; distribute project information via internet pages, publications, and symposia to a very wide audience, including national and international biodiversity programs. ...

This private website provides a multiplicity of articles related to raptors (Falconiformes). The main focus is on results reared from research using satellite telemetry. At this technique a transmitter is fitted on the birds. Thus an individual examination of migratory behaviour is possible, for example. [Editorial staff vifabio]
The Global Raptor Information Network (“GRIN”) is designed to provide information on diurnal raptors (hawks, eagles, and falcons) and to facilitate communication between raptor researchers and organizations interested in the conservation of these species. This web site provides access to Reference Manager databases. Published databases can be searched using either Quick Search or the Advanced Search. You can also: a) view references, b) edit references, including add and delete, c) create bibliographies and d) export references. ... [Information of the supplier]
Das MEROS-Monitoringprogramm beabsichtigt die Zusammenführung aktueller und historischer Angaben zur Siedlungsdichte und Reproduktion der Greifvogel- und Eulenarten Europas. Abgeleitete Aussagen zur Situation, Bestandsdynamik und Reproduktionsentwicklung der Greifvögel und Eulen in Deutschland bzw. Europa können argumentative Grundlagen für den Artenschutz bieten. Unsere Mitarbeiter: -möchten Datengrundlagen für Naturschutz schaffen -haben Interesse an der Biologie und Ökologie von Greifvögeln und Eulen -sind Einzelpersonen oder Gruppen, die beruflich oder/und privat in natur- und umweltbezogenen Bereichen arbeiten -sind z.B. Vogelberinger, Schutzgebietsmitarbeiter oder Mitglieder in Vogelschutzverbänden ... [Information des Anbieters]
