Rare bald eagle born in Southeast Wisconsin

At least one baby eagle was born near the shore of Lake Michigan in Southeast Wisconsin. The Department of Natural Resources confirmed the first baby bald eagle born in the region in over a century.

This encouraging story is an important reminder that not all wild animals that depend on the Great Lakes live underwater—animals that live in the watershed are part of an ecosystem that includes birds, bugs, deer, foxes, fish, and other wildlife that define the heritage of the Great Lakes.

Without quick action in Congress to start funding Great Lakes restoration, we stand the chance of losing important species that have called the Great Lakes home for hundreds of years.
