International audience We summarize key results of the first 53 years of one of the longest-running avian population studiesin the world, on the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), in the French Jura mountains (12,714 km2), launched in1964. A total of 449 cliff sites in 338 potential Peregrine terr...
