Our birds of interest throughout the American continent are the Lesser Tern. Our science shows that climate change threatens 389 species. This issue of Audubon focuses on solutions to help these birds. The sanctuary provides a safe haven for a wide range of birds, including many of those on Audubon's priority species list.
As one of the two main climate strongholds for birds over the next century, the Audubon Sanctuary in Corolla is developing and testing many conservation and land management programs to preserve and protect the priority species that will continue to depend on the Sanctuary and its resources after rising sea levels. We protect birds and the places they need across the hemisphere. While the National Audubon Society is known for its long-standing commitment to birds, the challenges to the region's biodiversity affect much more than birds. Protecting waterbird populations has been part of Audubon's mission even before the official creation of the National Audubon Society.
The National Audubon Society protects birds and the places they need, today and tomorrow, across the Americas through science, promotion, education and conservation on the ground.
