| 説明 | Crags and crevices, the deep canyon of the Snake River, thermal updrafts, and a broad plateau rich in small wildlife sustain the greatest concentration of nesting birds of prey in North America.Congress established the Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area in 1993 to protect a unique environment that supports one of the world’s most dense concentrations of nesting birds of prey. A part of the BLM’s National Conservation Lands, the area’s 485,000 acres host some 800 pairs of hawks, owls, eagles and falcons that come each spring to mate and raise young. The Omnibus Public Lands Management Act in 2009 officially added the name of conservationist Morley Nelson to the NCA in honor of Nelson’s work on behalf of birds of prey and their habitats. |
