Ducks Unlimited Completes Phase I of Port Fourchon Coastal Restoration Project in Louisiana

Phase I delivered an innovative approach to coastal protection by installing 87,000 linear feet of earthen marsh terraces combined with cutting-edge living shoreline features using Natrx "Cajun Coral" oyster reef materials. This nature-based solution creates living reefs that grow on and around shoreline structures, harnessing the power of marine ecosystems to heal the coast.

Migratory Bird Conservation Council Approves $3 Million Grant to Chandeleur Island Restoration Project, LA

The project addresses Louisiana's urgent coastal wetland crisis. The state has the highest coastal wetland loss rate in the United States, having lost over 1.2 million acres since the 1930s. Without restoration efforts, Louisiana could lose up to 1.9 million additional acres over the next 50 years.

Louisiana Resources

Louisiana's Ducks

The Prairie Pothole Region is critical to Louisiana waterfowl hunters.

The vast majority of Louisiana's annual duck harvest migrates to us from the Prairie Pothole Region, also referred to as "the duck factory

The Prairie Pothole Region is DU's #1 conservation focus area. In addition Louisiana benefits from DU's Mississippi Alluvial Valley and Gulf Coast conservation work as the organization continues to conserve critical waterfowl habitat in the Pelican State. All three of these geographic areas are top level priorities for Ducks Unlimited.

There is no waterfowl conservation organization that represents the needs of Louisiana waterfowl hunters like Ducks Unlimited.

Our vital conservation work provides support to our migration both on the breeding grounds and here at home.

With your help, we will preserve our waterfowl hunting heritage through habitat conservation of these areas vital to the Louisiana migration and harvest.
