Sanibel’s wildlife is part of what makes these islands feel so special.
In this episode of the Sanibel Captiva Guide podcast, we sit down with Ann-Marie Wildman, Executive Director of the “Ding” Darling Wildlife Society–Friends of the Refuge, the nonprofit friends group supporting the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge.
We talk about why protecting Sanibel’s wildlife and wild places matters, the important work happening behind the scenes, and why the refuge means so much to both locals and visitors.
Whether “Ding” Darling has been part of your family’s island tradition for years or it is still on your list for your next visit, this conversation will give you a fresh appreciation for one of Sanibel’s most treasured places.
