Abstract

Successful conservation usually takes a multidisciplinary approach. In Raptor Conservation in Practice I demonstrate how saving raptor species through techniques like captive breeding and release, and others, is effective only with research to solve conservation problems and measure results, and working to develop sustainable solutions with stakeholders using methods drawn from the disciplines of forensic research and social sciences respectively. I use examples from The Peregrine Fund’s experience over nearly 50 years of putting conservation into practice to develop the idea of the multidisciplinary approach and cite examples of recovery of critically endangered species such as the Peregrine Falcon, California Condor and Ridgway’s Hawk, forensic research to discover a new cause of mortality among vultures in South Asia, and community-based conservation solutions with stakeholders in Madagascar and Panama.
