Wildlife  New
York State is blessed with a great diversity of fish and wildlife.
More than
- 328 birds species;
- 93 mammal species;
- 490 marine and freshwater fish species; and
- 73 species of reptiles and amphibians
call New York home and are the foundation
of the state's biological richness. Citizens enjoy a wide
array of recreational activities associated with fish and
wildlife including fishing, bird watching, hunting and natural
history appreciation.
Wildlife protection and scientific management
is a core mission of Audubon New York. In the legislature,
Audubon is a leading advocate in working to conserve and restore
natural ecosystems, focusing on birds and other wildlife,
and their habitats for the benefit of humanity and the earth's
biological diversity.
