SINCE 1994, ISLAND CONSERVATION DEPLOYED STAFF TO 52 ISLANDS WORLDWIDE TO PROTECT 994 POPULATIONS OF 389 NATIVE SPECIES. IN 2015, ISLAND CONSERVATION WORKED TO PROTECT SCORES OF VULNERABLE SPECIES INCLUDING THE CRITICALLY ENDANGERED RICORD'S IGUANA ON CABRITOS ISLAND, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, AND THE CRITICALLY ENDANGERED POLYNESIAN GROUND-DOVE, IN FRENCH POLYNESIA. 313466 SMALL ISLANDS, BIG DIFFERENCE - THIS CAPACITY BUILDING AND ADVOCACY PROGRAM WORKS TO SAVE OUR WORLD'S MOST VULNERABLE SPECIES BY ADVANCING LOCAL, REGIONAL AND GLOBAL POLICIES, PARTNERSHIPS, FUNDING AND SUPPORT FOR REMOVAL OF INVASIVE SPECIES FROM ISLANDS.

WE ALSO SIGNED ISLAND RESTORATION PARTNERSHIP MOUS WITH: US FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE; DOMINICAN REPUBLIC; AND AUSTRALIA'S INVASIVE SPECIES COUNCIL.

THIS IS DUE TO OUR SUCCESSFUL EFFORTS TO RID THE ISLAND OF INVASIVE MAMMALS INCLUDING RATS.
