Scientists estimate that up to one billion birds die annually as a result of window strikes in the United States alone. At the Wildlife Care Center, we see from 200 to 300 strike-related cases each year, or roughly 10 percent of the total case load. Birds do not recognize glass as a solid object and are prone to collisions, especially when passing through unfamiliar landscapes.
