Wildlife Aircraft Strikes

Birds and other animals hit planes more often than you'd think. This database logs nearly three decades of those collisions at US airports: what species were involved, how much damage happened, how much it cost to fix, and what the plane was doing when it hit something. It's useful for understanding how common wildlife strikes are, which airports have more problems, and whether certain conditions make them more likely.
