Asia-Pacific Raptor Conservation Program-2007 Report 13 Jun 08
Goal: Conserve species in jeopardy through research, hands-on intervention, and development of local capacity.
The Asia-Pacific Raptor Conservation Program focuses on raptors that occur in the Oriental and parts of the Australasian bio-geographic regions. The islands in this area, roughly between Southeast Asia and Australia, are notable for their species of limited range which are particularly vulnerable to extinction; projects in these islands are described below. Additionally, catastrophic declines in Gyps vulture populations in South Asia (Indian sub-continent) have resulted in three once common species being listed as critically endangered; the Asian Vulture Crisis Project is described on theAsian Vulture Project page
The Peregrine Fund is offering an annual grant of up to $10,000 to promote the study and conservation of littleknown or threatened or endangered raptors of South and Southeast Asia. For more information please read the PDF file GRANT FOR RAPTOR RESEARCH AND CONSERVATION IN TROPICAL ASIA
Grants have been suspended until further notice due to the economic recession.
