Oppose an Illegal Land Swap in the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge

The Izembek National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska is one of the most important migratory bird staging and wintering habitats in the world—and it is under threat. Nearly all of the world's Pacific Brant and Emperor Geese stop at Izembek to feed and rest. The refuge also is home to Tundra Swans, Ptarmigan, Bald Eagles, as well as federally threatened species, such as Steller’s Eiders.  

Audubon joined eight other groups in a lawsuit challenging the land swap made by the previous Administration, which will allow the construction of an 11-mile gravel road through the heart of the refuge. Join Audubon in opposing this dangerous project. ([link removed])

The land deal blatantly disregards the Wilderness Act and the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act—a law established to protect federal land jewels in Alaska like Izembek—and could cause long-term degradation to the refuge’s wilderness and wetlands. 

There are better, more reliable alternatives to building this road. Tell the Department of the Interior to reject the privatized road and support proven, win-win solutions for people and wildlife.
