How To Help

"I think the Trumpeter Swan is a symbol of what man needs, as well as what the swan needs.  What the swan needs is the symbol of what we need – a whole planet, a healthy planet. 

But, I think also that the concern for the swan as evidenced in this Society is a symbol of an awakening in the consciousness of people, of concern for our world – a world inherited, used, abused, nearly lost; a complete world, moving, breathing, burgeoning with life – fish, fowl, flowers, animals, and man.  There is the word altruism, and I think it could be applied to the formation of this Society. 

And, I think The Trumpeter Swan Society itself is a symbol of a more altruistic concern for all life, because keeping the Trumpeter Swan healthy means keeping that complete world, the habitat."

     ~ Margaret "Mardy" Murie, wilderness advocate, preservationist, matriarch of the conservation movement. In her decades of conservation activism, Mardy Murie advocated for the Wilderness Act, testified before Congress on protecting Alaska wild lands and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Wild trumpeter swans are counting on you

Your gift today makes sure Trumpeter Swans can continue their journey of recovery and restoration to North America.

Why is that important? The Trumpeter Swan is an “indicator species” of healthy wetlands and waterways. They thrive in clean waters and high quality habitat that supports countless plant and animal species that have no voice of their own. That's why wild Trumpeter Swans are counting on you.

Trumpeter Swans are symbols of hope showing that science, partnerships, and perseverance can bring a species back from the brink of extinction.

Your gift trumpets that inspiring journey, a journey that is not yet finished.

Trumpeter Swans need your help to continue that journey.

Together, we can assure the vitality and welfare of wild Trumpeter Swans.

We are the only nonprofit working on Trumpeter Swan issues across North America at the local, state and national levels. Thanks to donations by people just like you, we have been North America's leader of Trumpeter Swan conservation for 50 years.

  • habitat security throughout the year including nesting, migration and wintering
  • continued restoration of Trumpeter Swans in the west
