Don’t Cut the Line: Brochure and placing signs at piers, boat ramps and boat shops
You can save a bird at the end of a fishing line. Do not cut him free and allow the bird to fly back to the mangrove trailing line that will entrap him. Unable to free himself, he will starve to death within a few days and can entangle other birds as well. Lines as short as 10 inches can be a death trap. Flyers have been distributed locally and nationally and are available in the office. (Download the Don't Cut the Line brochure)
Baby Bird Book
A booklet is available in the office on how to return a baby bird to its nest or build a new nest if the nest has been destroyed. (Download the Baby Bird Book)
Oiled Wildlife Response Training
Over 85 volunteers were trained in 2010 on how to wash oiled birds and care for them prior to release. Save Our Seabirds has a mobile response unit that can be deployed to an oil spill to rescue oiled birds.
