WE WORK TOGETHER WITH LOCAL COMMUNITIES, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, AND OTHER CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS TO ACHIEVE OUR GOALS; WE ARE A SOLIDLY 'BOOTS ON THE GROUND ORGANIZATION. WE DO THIS BY CREATING 'ISLANDS' WITHIN ISLANDS WHERE PREDATORS HAVE EITHER BEEN REMOVED AND EXCLUDED THROUGH FENCING OR ARE CONTROLLED ON A LONG TERM BASIS. WE THEN WORK TO RESTORE THE HABITAT IN THESE AREAS, AND IN SOME CASES, BRING BIRD SPECIES BACK THAT ARE NO LONGER FOUND THERE THROUGH TRANSLOCATION AND SOCIAL ATTRACTION. THROUGHOUT ALL OF OUR WORK, WE ACTIVELY CONDUCT RESEARCH TO UNDERSTAND AVIAN BIOLOGY, AND THE ECOSYSTEM CHANGES AND BENEFITS TO INFORM FUTURE CONSERVATION ACTIONS. TO DATE, WE HAVE PUBLISHED MORE THAN 142 PEER-REVIEWED PAPERS IN HIGH-PROFILE SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS AND ONE FULL LENGTH BOOK, AND HAVE HAD OUR WORK FEATURED IN MEDIA OUTLETS SUCH AS THE NEW YORK TIMES, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC AND THE BBC.
