*[Enwl-eng] The world's oldest wild bird - now a new mom - needs our protection

[ENWL]

                        The oldest bird's survival and the survival of her offspring and species depend on us.

                        Wisdom, a 74-year-old Laysan albatross, has just made history as the oldest known wild bird in the world, by laying her 60th egg. 

                        Wisdom's remarkable life has spanned decades of environmental change, yet her survival and the survival of her species remain under constant threat.


                        Every year, seabirds like Wisdom endure threats from invasive species, rising sea levels and climate change, and ocean plastics. Wisdom herself has beaten the odds, living several years longer than the usual lifespan of Laysan albatrosses, and raising over 30 chicks in her lifetime. But she cannot do it alone.

                        Her story underscores the urgent need to expand funding for bird conservation, protect critical habitats, and intensify efforts to remove plastic and other pollutants from marine ecosystems.

                        Wisdom is not only an extraordinary individual — she's also a living symbol of resilience and the irreplaceable beauty of our natural world. Let's honor Wisdom's legacy by taking action to protect her and the next generation of seabirds.



                        Sign this petition to help us call on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to increase protections for nesting sites on Midway Atoll, implement plans to reduce marine pollution, and expand funding for bird conservation programs.


                       
                 
           
                       
                 Thank you,
