PELICANLIFE.ORG — a resource for California Brown Pelican information, for information about wildlife — primarily seabird — laws and preservation, and for news from around the world about pelicans and other threatened bird species. PelicanLife is also a resource for news of other endangered and threatened species: Condors, Bald Eagles, Plovers (Piping and Western Snowy), Whooping Cranes, ..., the list of threatened species goes on and on. There's also a list of seabird rehabilitation centers.

Here are facts about the California Brown Pelican, protected under federal and state Endangered Species Acts, a species recovering thanks to those laws but still very much at risk. All pelicans need our help — as well as our admiration — and that's the reason for this Web site.

This site is an on-going labor of love — for the pelicans AND their caregivers. PelicanLife is dedicated to the volunteer rehabilitation workers in the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network.

Please enjoy pelicanlife.org ... and do try to help the Santa Barbara pelicans.

Thank you!
