This $155,000 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Coastal Program (CFDA 15.630) supports The Peregrine Fund, Inc.'s efforts to preserve and restore grassland habitats in South Texas for the endangered northern aplomado falcon.

The funding enables The Peregrine Fund to work closely with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at refuges in the Lower Rio Grande Valley to manage thousands of acres of prairie using prescribed fire, mechanical, and chemical treatments. This habitat restoration work has allowed falcon territories that were at risk of being lost due to brush encroachment and invasive species to be reoccupied, with the falcons successfully nesting and fledging young. The project aims to continue expanding and improving grassland habitats in the region to benefit the endangered northern aplomado falcon and other grassland bird species. Key activities include population monitoring, habitat management, and conservation education.
