Hiding high up in the canopy of eastern forests, red-and-black Scarlet Tanagers can be surprisingly tough to spot. But if we’re to continue spotting them for years to come, we must do all we can to protect the forests they call home now.
3 billion birds have vanished in less than a human lifetime.
Two-thirds of North American bird species are threatened with extinction due to climate change.
Birds like the Scarlet Tanager are losing vital forest habitat.
We still have time to reverse course, if we act now. The gift you start today safeguards birds from the most devastating effects of climate change: fragmented habitat, extreme weather events, and global temperature rise. From Audubon’s cutting-edge conservation research to advocating for climate legislation in town halls all the way up to the U.S. Capitol, we know what it takes to get birds back on track. But we can’t continue this vital work without you.
