Overview


Michigan Audubon is a leader in establishing sanctuaries in the state to protect wildlife habitat. We play a major role in global efforts to identify and protect critical migration stop overs and breeding areas.

Our 19 sanctuaries and four affiliates manage more than 5,000 acres of important wildlife habitat. Rivers, lakes, marshes, bogs, fens, grasslands, hardwoods and northern conifer communities are found in these habitats, many protecting endangered species of animals and plants.

Michigan Audubon is a key partner in efforts that have identified more than 100 Important Bird Areas (IBAs) critical to migrating and breeding birds, especially those that are endangered or threatened. Sanctuaries and IBAs are spread throughout both peninsulas of the state.
