The mission of HawkWatch International is to conserve the environment through education, long-term monitoring, and scientific research on raptors as indicators of ecosystem health. We believe that through our efforts to monitor and protect birds of prey (also known as raptors), we can also protect our shared environment, our rich natural heritage, and ourselves. HawkWatch International fulfills its mission through programs in long-term monitoring, ecological research, applied conservation, and public outreach and education. Through each of these efforts, we promote an ethic of ecological sustainability and conservation for this and generations to follow.
