They are important indicators of the health of our ecosystems, due to their position at the top of the food chain. But several species are declining, with two species threatened in some states. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAustralian Falcons: Ecology, Behaviour and Conservation\u003c\/i\u003e, Dr. Stephen Debus provides a 30-year update of knowledge on these six species, as well as a falcon-like hawk, the Black-shouldered Kite.
