	Peregrine Falcon Reproduction \| Indicators \| MED Large Lakes Research Branch \| US EPA
		Peregrine falcons, known for their swift flight, have never been very abundant anywhere in the world due to very specific nest site requirements and their position at the top of the food chain.
		In 1981, the Midwest Peregrine Falcon Restoration Team was created and charged with the task of developing a management plan to restore peregrine falcons as a nesting bird population in the upper Midwest.
		Reintroducing captive bred falcons into the wild proved to be successful in restoring a population of wild reproduced peregrines.

		Detroit came back with a 43-yard pass from Mitchell to Moore, who posted up Ronnie Bradford at about the 17-yard line, then turned and ran untouched for the score.
