Abstract
The status of the flammulated owl will be evaluated in this chapter by asking a series of critical questions about the species and its habitat. Answers to these questions will be used to reach one of the following conclusions: (1) populations in the United States are secure and will likely remain so given current land management practices; (2) populations are in peril (declining or experiencing some demographic trauma) or are likely to be in peril in the future given current land management practices; or (3) we currently have insufficient knowledge to determine the conservation status of the species. The conclusions reached here are necessarily tentative, given the incomplete state of present knowledge.
