Maine island bought to stop clear-cutting is now a 330-acre sanctuary

Hog Island Audubon Camp marks an impressive ninety years of promoting environmental education and research. Located in Maine, this island was rescued from deforestation by environmentalists Millicent Todd Bingham and Mabel Loomis Todd. The camp is also the birthplace of Project Puffin, which successfully revitalized seabird numbers.
