To reintroduce osprey to an area of former abundance, first wildlife biologists removed eggs of healthy adult birds from regions that had been spared the toxic spraying. Then they placed them in nests of birds who had for a long duration been unsuccessful in incubating their eggs. These adults raised these adoptees as their own. The juveniles imprinted to the region in which they were raised and thus established new colonies of healthy birds.
