Focusing on the interdisciplinary research of three University of Montana scientists, this account explores the life of ospreys and their role in monitoring environmental health, particularly the impact of mercury contamination. By studying these fish-catching birds, known for their teamwork and large nests, the scientists gather crucial data on pollutants in the rivers and streams of Western Montana, remnants of historical mining activities. Their six-year study highlights the ongoing dangers of man-made pollution to both wildlife and human populations.
