The birds were first captured and blood-sampled for monitoring residue burdens and trends in the late 1970' s. Only 29 Peregrines were sampled in 1978 and 1979, but 111 were sampled...

Twenty Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) eggs (one per eyrie) were collected at random in Alaska in 1984 for organochlorine residue analysis. Prior to this study we had obtained only addled eggs which were possibly not representative of the egg-laying population if addled eggs contained different levels of organochlorines than viable...
