Protecting birds and their habitats

Audubon Alaska is a science-based conservation organization that works to protect birds, other wildlife, and their habitats across Alaska. We use science to identify conservation priorities and support conservation actions and policies, with an emphasis on public lands and waters, and through education we seek to raise public awareness about the natural ecosystems of Alaska.
Below are some of our areas of focus.
The Western Arctic abounds with birds and other wildlife as one of the most ecologically valuable place on earth.
Birds that nest in the Arctic Refuge migrate to all 50 states.
The Tongass is home to some of the last remaining old-growth temperate rainforest in the world.
This area of Southeast Alaska is home to the largest gathering of Bald Eagles in the world.
The Mendenhall Wetlands are of outstanding value to waterbirds, certain grassland and wet-meadow songbirds, and raptors, and are a key migratory waterfowl and shorebird stopover location on coastal Alaska.
Izembek is an important migration and breeding area for many species.
Help secure the future for birds at risk from climate change, habitat loss and other threats. Your support will power our science, education, advocacy and on-the-ground conservation efforts.
