Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animals, Biological & Life Sciences, Environment, Forest Conservation, Protection of Endangered Species
Mission: Promote wildlife conservation through research and education.
Programs: The owl research institute, inc. (ori) is dedicated to wildlife conservation through research and education. Our efforts occur primarily in montana, and secondarily in alaska. Oris program goals can be broken down into three areas: research -ori conducts long-term studies to understand species needs, vulnerabilities, and population trends. Length of study and level of comprehension set our research apart. These ongoing and complex research projects require a great deal of time, travel, and manpower, but are the foundation of our long-term research. Education -ori actively engages and educates a global audience through owl research. Live cams, q & as, lectures, social media, tv, articles, and field tours are all tools we utilize. We know that when people learn about and connect with owls, they are more likely to become advocates for conservation. We rarely turn down a request to share our knowledge with any group. Conservation-ori supplies partners, such as federal and state agencies, private conservation groups, and land owners, information to promote meaningful habitat management; such as our involvement in the western asio flammeus landscape study. This collaborative effort between 8 western states and 15 agencies and organizations aims to provide much needed baseline data to inform management decisions on short-eared owl habitats across the western u. S. Additionally, we distribute owl population data through scientific publications across the world.
