  • Help protect our oceans

    Seabirds may indicate the status of habitat, reduction in food occurrence and abundance, rate of the predation, an effect of weather (climate change), and threats. We are dedicated to the rescue of sick, injured or orphaned seabirds and pelicans.

LATEST NEWS

Pelicans are an often overlooked and frequently abused species. We regularly find pelicans with their bills intentionally twisted or broken by human hands.

PRT’s mission is to provide emergency response, rescue, and ambulance transport services for injured pelicans and other ocean-dependent birds.

Polluters and ill-informed fisherman injure thousands of pelicans each year in and around southern California’s bays, coastal waters, beaches, lakes, and piers.

Why save pelicans?

1
Seabirds' natural behaviors are key to functionality and biological diversity on islands and in their surrounding marine habitat.
2
Seabirds bring important marine nutrients to islands, and contribute to habitat for other species.
3
When human impact alters a seabird's home, natural ways of life can turn deadly.
