Global raptor conservation depends on non-governmental conservation organizations (NGCOs) and, fundamentally, members of those organizations. But while NGCOs declare a central mission, their membership may be more varied. This can pose a challenge to a NGCO in terms of developing programs and advocacy that reflects its membership’s preference and likelihood of support. Systematic assessment of members’ preferences and opinions is needed to assure alignment with an organization’s actions. Using the North American Falconers Association (NAFA) as a NGCO case study, members’ preferences and opinions on issues related to raptor conservation were assessed. Results suggest a consensus among participants that conservation should include habitats and species; prairie, sage, and wetland habitats are the most salient habitat issues and perceived declines in native game bird, waterfowl, and small game mammals are the most salient wildlife issues. Tied to these concerns of habitat and species was land access to practice falconry. Overall, results suggest participants prefer organizational resources be used to support prairie habitat and grouse species conservation. For NGCOs, systematic membership surveys can provide substantial insight for decision-making and effective allocation of membership-derived resources. Member surveys also signal an organizations willingness to listen to its constituents and act upon their views and local knowledge to coordinate conservation action.

利益相关者对北美猛禽保护和猎鹰的看法

全球猛禽保护取决于非政府保护组织(NGCO),并且从根本上说,取决于这些组织的成员。但是,尽管NGCO宣布了一项中心任务,但其成员资格可能会更加多样化。这对于NGCO的计划和倡导提出了挑战,反映了其成员的偏好和支持的可能性。需要对成员的偏好和意见进行系统的评估,以确保与组织的行为保持一致。使用北美猎鹰协会(NAFA)作为NGCO案例研究,评估了成员对与猛禽保护相关的问题的偏好和意见。结果表明,参与者之间的共识是,保护应包括栖息地和物种。草原,鼠尾草,湿地栖息地是最突出的栖息地问题,而天然的野味鸟类,水禽和小型野味哺乳动物的减少是最突出的野生动植物问题。与栖息地和物种有关的这些问题与猎鹰活动有关。总体而言,结果表明,参与者更喜欢使用组织资源来支持草原栖息地和松鸡物种的保护。对于NGCO,系统的会员调查可以为决策制定和会员资源的有效分配提供实质性见解。成员调查还表明组织愿意听取其成员的意见,并根据他们的观点和当地知识采取行动以协调保护行动。与栖息地和物种有关的这些问题与猎鹰活动有关。总体而言,结果表明,参与者更喜欢使用组织资源来支持草原栖息地和松鸡物种的保护。对于NGCO,系统的会员调查可以为决策制定和会员资源的有效分配提供实质性见解。成员调查还表明组织愿意听取其成员的意见,并根据他们的观点和当地知识采取行动以协调保护行动。与栖息地和物种有关的这些问题与猎鹰活动有关。总体而言,结果表明,参与者更喜欢使用组织资源来支持草原生境和松鸡物种的保护。对于NGCO,系统的会员调查可以为决策制定和会员资源的有效分配提供实质性见解。成员调查还表明组织愿意听取其成员的意见,并根据他们的观点和当地知识采取行动以协调保护行动。
