International Cooperation 



Conclusion 



To facilitate international exchange 

 of information, the Center cooper- 

 ates with international organizations. 

 In these cooperative efforts, NWRC 

 scientists develop and test new 

 wildlife damage-management 

 techniques and transfer the 

 wildlife damage-control technology 

 to scientists and technicians in host 

 countries. Center scientists develop 

 methods for reducing severe 



agricultural damage caused by a 

 variety of rodents, birds, and other 

 vertebrate pests in Latin America, 

 Africa, and Asia. 



NWRC is committed to: 



• Being responsive to the concerns 

 and values of the public; 



• Providing valid, objective 

 scientific information of the 

 highest quality; 



• Promoting the welfare of animals 

 and the quality of the 

 environment; 



Encouraging employees' high 

 morale and growth and 

 development; 



Maintaining a quality work 

 environment; and 



The Center's international activities develop working relationships with people 

 around the world. (APHIS file photo.) 



• Providing equal opportunity for 

 employment and advancement. 



Studies conducted at the Center will 

 continue to provide new informa- 

 tion to help resolve complex issues 

 related to wildlife damage, human 

 health and safety problems, threat- 

 ened and endangered species, and 

 invasive species. These studies will 

 help America manage its wildlife 

 resources wisely and effectively into 

 the future.
