A National Audubon Society Book. With their large, colorful beaks, their upright posture, and their big, dark eyes, it's easy to see why puffins are popular all over the world. But for the past hundred years, puffins along the coast of Maine have been threatened with local extinction. Biologist Stephen Kress decided to try to bring puffins back to Maine with an experiment that had never been attempted before. As you learn about Project Puffin, you'll also learn all about puffins -- how they are so wonderfully adapted to their ocean environment, how they catch fish, socialize, nest in burrows, and raise their young. Project Puffin is a fascinating wildlife study as well as the true story of a young scientist with a hopeful dream.
