Raising Endangered Birds for Success 🐦

Meet our new Director of Habitat Connectivity, Dr. Jessica Roberts, as she discusses habitat connectivity and her PhD research on bird behavior, breeding endangered species, and the release of these beautiful animals into the wild.
When birds are raised in captivity their survival rate in the wild is often low. To increase the likelihood of their success, some experts try to teach skills such as predator escape, searching for food, or familiarizing the animals with their release site. Learn more about these techniques and how well they are working to increase the success of these endangered birds in the wild!
