Conservation Programs

Ten young osprey chicks relocated from Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Virginia were released at two sites in Illinois this summer. The releases are part of an eight-year effort to restore the osprey as a nesting species in Illinois. Currently, the osprey is listed as an endangered species in the state.
