WORK WITH US

For over 50 years, The Peregrine Fund has worked to conserve birds of prey. Addressing threats such as pollution, deforestation, and human-wildlife conflict is key to supporting the world's 561+ species of raptors and the ecosystem upon which we all rely. As top predators, raptors serve as indicators of ecosystem health while providing essential services like rodent control and disease prevention through carrion removal. The Peregrine Fund relies on science to assess extinction risk and causes of decline to allocate resources effectively while engaging local communities in comprehensive, collaborative conservation solutions, unique and innovative to each region. Key achievements include removing the Peregrine Falcon from the U.S. Endangered Species List, helping restore the Mauritius Kestrel population from just four wild birds, and identifying and addressing the drivers of the Asian Vulture Crisis. Current projects span dozens of countries, including community-based conservation in Madagascar, doubling the known Ridgway's Hawk population on Hispaniola, and managing California Condor recovery efforts in the American West. Our employee benefits program plays a vital role in demonstrating our commitment to our employees. We are pleased to offer eligible employees a benefits program that is comprehensive and among the best among our peer institutions as the employee-only coverage is 100% paid for by the organization.
