Maine Audubon works to conserve Maine’s wildlife and wildlife habitat by engaging people of all ages in education, conservation and action.

Our Record of Achievement

• Defending the Penjajawoc Marsh from proposals to build a Wal-Mart "supercenter" adjacent to the state's largest freshwater marsh. More

• Stemming the population declines of endangered least terns and piping plovers through careful monitoring and management of the birds' breeding colonies to set them on the road to recovery.

• Strengthening the state endangered species act to protect critical habitat.

• Developing Maine's first timberharvesting standards to limit clearcutting and record the extent of logging operations.

• Researching ecological, recreational, timber, cultural, and economic resources in Maine's 15 million acre Northern Forest as part of the effort to develop a conservation plan for this vital region.

• Promoting public awareness of lake-ecology issues through a statewide loon count and involvement in state lake policy initiatives.
