Peregrine Falcon Release Aims To Rebuild Winnipeg Population
In 1981, four Peregrine falcons were released at the Fort Osborne Complex as part of a Canadian program to reestablish the wild population. By 1982, a few birds sighted near Winnipeg suggested continued success with summer sightings and banded birds likely from the initial release. The project, with 75 birds released across Canada, involved captive-reared birds from the Wainwright facility and careful feeding to maintain wild behavior. birds will migrate to South America in autumn with potential nesting in Winnipeg in spring 1983.
