Founded in 1905, the National Audubon Society is named for John James Audubon (1785-1851), the famed ornithologist, explorer, and wildlife artist. The organization is dedicated to protecting birds and other wildlife and the habitat that supports them. Its national network of community-based nature centers and chapters, environmental education programs, and advocacy on behalf of areas sustaining important bird populations engage millions of people in conservation experiences.
