About

BRI's mission is to assess emerging threats to wildlife and ecosystems through collaborative research, and to use scientific findings to advance environmental awareness and inform decision makers.
BRI is proud to tell its story in a new video featuring stunning cinematography that captures the work we do and why we do it.

We hope you will follow along with us as we embark on the next 25 years.
