The Piping Plover is a species at serious risk: Although the breeding population is increasing, the Great Lakes population is still just a fraction of what it once was. Habitat loss and degradation contribute to its decline, as does disturbance from people, pets, and wildlife near their nests. And it’s one of the two-thirds of North American species at increasing risk of extinction from climate change.

But, we’re not willing to let the birds we love go extinct. Please join us in protecting birds like the Piping Plover: Start your dependable annual contribution right away and your first gift will be matched, up to $75,000.
