Breaking the Shell presents the first scientific approach, by means of an aerial survey, to the status of the breeding population of the golden eagle in the Baja California peninsula. Throughout the book, its biology, ecology and cultural relevance are explored, as well as the threats faced by the species in a global and regional context. The author develops an innovative methodological approach that combines aerial monitoring, spatial analysis and ecological niche modeling to identify nesting patterns and priority conservation areas. The results reveal the close relationship between climatic, geomorphological and ecological variables in the selection of breeding habitat, highlighting the complexity of their conservation. This book not only provides key scientific knowledge, but also proposes concrete tools for decision making, positioning itself as a reference for researchers, environmental managers and decision makers committed to the protection of this emblematic species.
