Mission

The Conanicut Island Raptor Project (CIRP) is dedicated to the preservation, study and enjoyment of Jamestown’s birds of prey. It is CIRP’s belief that an informed community that values its wildlife will act responsibly to protect wild animals and the habitat on which they depend for survival.

About

CIRP is a Community partnership that includes the Audubon Society of Rhode Island, the Jamestown Conservation Commision, the Jamestown Education Foundation (JEF), the Jamestown School Department, the Town of Jamestown, the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority (RITBA) and Rob Bierregaard, PhD. Its purpose is to educate the public about the important link between wildlife and the natural habitat that supports it.
