Concerned with preservation of wildlife and their habitats, especially the waterfowl and wetlands of the Atlantic Seaboard. To promote better understanding of the complexity of wildfowl preservation and wetlands conservation, we offer the following information.
Wetlands are where the water meets the land.
Wetlands are where thousands of birds come to rest and feed during their migratory flight, and where ducks and geese breed and raise their young. Wetlands are where anglers fish in the spring, and recreationists relax in the summer. Wetlands are where aquatic life, wildlife and people come together. Wetlands come in all shapes and sizes, and vary in type and function. They occur in every state of the United States, from the coastal marshes of Alaska to the mangrove forests of Florida.
