Aiming to keep aircraft and wildlife from hazardous encounters

THULE AIR BASE, Greenland - A lone ring-necked duck floats on open water near Thule Air Base, Greenland, Aug. 15, 2017. Water sources near the base attract many bird species that can cause flight hazards for aircraft. The 21st Space Wing Bird/Wildlife Airstrike Hazard team from Peterson Air Force Base was at the base to determine steps to prevent future bird and wildlife airstrikes. (Courtesy photo)
