Save Pecan Island and the Migratory Flyway
SpaceX plans to launch rockets in one of North America's most critical wildlife corridors. Millions of migratory birds depend on this land. So do we. Louisiana has watched the ground beneath them disappear in backroom deals the public has no knowledge of until the deal is done. With the latest announcement, it seems the State of Louisiana will be handing over 130,000 acres to SpaceX.

Acres of wetland threatened
Chance to stop it
SpaceX's proposed expansion near Pecan Island, Louisiana would destroy thousands of acres of coastal marsh, wetland habitat, and critical stopover points for hundreds of migratory bird species. The Central Flyway is one of four major migratory routes in North America. Once this land is gone, it cannot be restored.
Wildlife at Risk
These species cannot afford to lose this land.
Whooping Crane
One of the rarest birds in North America — this flyway is its lifeline.
Roseate Spoonbill
Nests and feeds in the coastal marshes SpaceX plans to destroy.
Great Blue Heron
When herons disappear, the entire wetland ecosystem is collapsing.
Every year, hundreds of millions of birds cross this sky.
