The event that greatly influenced the decline of the peregrine falcon species is B). the use of pesticides on plants.
- The event that triggered the decimation of the peregrine falcon has not been traced to the destruction of their natural habitats during wars. Its population was not reduced by the flying-training of young falcons without their adults, nor the invasion of the city by the great horned owls.
