Why do we rescue loons in distress? We are sometimes asked why we go through all of the effort required to rescue a single loon. There are many answers to this question—it is a worthy endeavor, if we are able, to help animals survive.

Life is better under the sea, so let’s keep it that way. Protecting our oceans and the #wildlife that inhabit them is just one part of the work to halt the climate & extinction crises. Our neighbors under the sea deserve as much!dfnd.us/3L32sE6
