Dear friends,
We have been following this year’s breeding season in the states of Chihuahua and Guanajuato very closely. Our local community monitors—a group of lively, empowered youths committed with golden eagle conservation—identified 11 eagle pairs in Chihuahua, six of which produced offspring this year.
In the state of Guanajuato, in central Mexico, only one of the two identified breeding pairs produced offspring. Although prey availability has been low in the area, the chick is now approximately seven weeks old and we are hopeful that it will survive to make its first flight in a couple of weeks.
These monitoring efforts provide crucial data that will aid managers in making conservation decisions based on the best available science. Your support is paramount for the continuation of our work. Thank you for joining us on this journey, and please consider renewing your contribution to the project.
Kind regards,
Francisco
