THE PEREGRINE FUND INC

Programs

1. The california condor recovery program-led by the peregrine fund (tpf) in collaboration with federal, state, tribal, and private partners-combines intensive wild population management with a robust captive propagation program to recover one of the world's most critically endangered species. Through coordinated breeding, strategic releases, rigorous scientific monitoring, and cross-jurisdictional conservation initiatives, the program aims to establish a viable, self-sustaining population of california condors in northern arizona, southern utah, and across the species' historic range. (continued on schedule o) since 1996, tpf has released 274 captive-reared condors into the arizonautah region and confirmed 69 wild-hatched young from 35 unique breeding pairs. The wild population now stands at 360+ birds - a significant increase over the species' low of just 22 individuals in 1982 - and contributes to a global population approaching 600 birds, with more condors now living in the wild than in captivity for the first time in modern recovery history.wild population management is supported by continuous gps-enabled tracking, health assessments, nest monitoring, and rapid response to…

2. The madagascar program focuses on strengthening national conservation capacity, protecting biodiversity-rich habitats, and preventing the extinction of critically endangered raptors. Efforts center on four protected areas representing dry forests, wetlands, and montane ecosystems.in 2025, the program achieved major progress in conservation management, ecological monitoring, community development, and scientific capacity building. Over 84 forest patrols and nine joint missions with government partners improved habitat protection. Reforestation efforts restored 315 hectares with more than 315,000 seedlings. (continued on schedule o)fire management capacity was strengthened through public awareness, training, and the creation and maintenance of over 60 km of firebreaks. Local communities benefited through agricultural support, infrastructure improvements, and education initiatives. These included agricultural equipment donations, training for farmers, assisting in the repair or rehabilitation of several schools, and the installation of renewable-energy and cold-storage technologies to support local livelihoods and animal health.ecological monitoring produced critical data on…

3. The peregrine fund's world center for birds of prey features a public interpretive center that is central to our education and outreach efforts. A knowledgeable and inspired citizenry is key to solving myriad environmental issues. Through our unique programming, people learn to value raptors and the landscapes upon which they rely. We expanded our campus in 2023, adding new exhibits, a welcome center, expanded parking, and an outdoor education space. Through our school field-trip program, we directly interfaced with more than 5,000 students, positively transforming attitudes, behavior, and values. This past year we hosted a record 54,306 visitors at the world center for birds of prey. (continued on schedule o)in 2025, our programming was bolstered by 135 regularly scheduled volunteers who donated more than 10,000 hours of service. Our consistent volunteer base is essential to delivering our programming in a cost-effective manner. Through meaningful connections with individuals, we inspire people to value raptors and take action.

4. The puerto rican sharp-shinned hawk (prssh) and puerto rican broad-winged hawk (prbwha) are two critically imperiled endemic raptor subspecies facing severe population declines driven by habitat loss, extreme weather events, nest parasitism, predation, small population size, and limited genetic diversity. Both were listed under the u.s. Endangered species act in 1994, and decades of monitoring document alarmingly low numbers and unstable breeding success. The peregrine fund (tpf) leads the only long-term, island-wide conservation effort focused on preventing extinction and restoring both species through nest management, propagation, rigorous research, and capacity-building in puerto rico.tpf's goals are to prevent extinction of the prssh by boosting reproductive output through double-clutching, propagation, releases, and targeted nest management, and to identify the ecological drivers of decline for both prssh and prbwha to guide a long-term conservation plan. These efforts have produced measurable gains: since 2018, tpf has successfully fledged 83 prsshs through propagation and nest management, trained over 45 conservation personnel, and built strong partnerships with local…
