World Center Research
 The World Center research program is designed to improve the health, reproduction, and reintroduction efforts of captive species and to collect information about the general biology of raptors. We are working to identify the needs of captive birds of prey. Just as with people, we need to understand how diet, aging, and environment affect the health, growth, reproduction, and lifespan of birds. Our video monitoring of captive birds also lets us collect detailed behavioral information on little-known species. Other studies on disease, contaminants, and genetics help us to evaluate the problems facing birds in the wild. Our research provides practical answers to present and future problems. These answers can be applied to many different captive and wild species. |
