ABOUT OUR WORK
The Institute for Bird Populations enables science-based conservation of species and habitats by studying the abundance, demography, and ecology of birds and other wildlife.
We collaborate locally, nationally, and globally with government agencies, universities, and NGOs to assess the effects of land management actions and other ecological stressors on bird populations, and prescribe practical solutions to conservation challenges.
We use cutting-edge science, and frequently publish results in peer-reviewed journals.
