What We Do

Habitat Conservation

We advocate for the scientific study of swans and their habitats, conduct winter swan surveys and support the conservation of agricultural lands and wetlands vital for swans and other waterfowl.

Educational Programs

We offer educational initiatives for the public, schools, and organizations to raise awareness about swan conservation and their ecosystems.

Get the Lead Out

We lead the “Get the Lead Out” campaign to address the lethal ingestion of lead shot by swans and other birds, working to eliminate this significant threat.

Collaborations

We partner with local, state, and federal agencies, NGOs, landowners, and farmers to advance swan conservation efforts and foster community involvement.

Foster to Freedom

(Note: This is a past initiative.) The Foster to Freedom Program involved raising captive-reared Trumpeter Swan cygnets to flight age for release into the wild. The program successfully contributed to the restoration of the Trumpeter Swan population in the Midwest, which is now thriving.
