Allens Pond Wildlife Sanctuary

Mass Audubon staff recently visited with students at B.M.C. Durfee High School in Fall River to tell them first-hand about the many paths and available opportunities that can lead to different careers in the environmental field.

This year to celebrate Earth Day, Mass Audubon's South East region marched in the Earth Eve procession through downtown New Bedford with students from the New Bedford Parks & Recreation after school program.

In the summer of 2021, we conducted pilot studies at both Allens Pond and Great Neck wildlife sanctuaries on the South Coast. The results we found will help inform future land management decisions as we work to enhance turtle nesting habitats at these two properties.
