Institute for Wildlife Studies – Because funding for long-term studies is rare, relatively few species have been investigated in this manner. Two long-term studies conducted by the Institute include a project on the once-endangered bald eagle, now in its fourth decade, and another on the threatened island fox. These studies have provided considerable insight into the biology of these species, and will contribute significantly to the successful maintenance of their populations. Provided fund raising efforts are successful, work will continue on these studies and additional investigations will be initiated to expand our knowledge of wildlife biology.
