Two years ago, hopes rose when adults were seen carrying fish to hidden nests — only for all signs of chicks to vanish. Experts fear this may be the “last chance saloon” for this vulnerable colony. No single cause has yet been identified, which makes targeted Conservation even more urgent.

Without immediate government intervention and funding, the Purbeck puffins may vanish forever — possibly within just 15 years.

Sign the petition now to demand emergency funding for habitat protection, breeding Support, and research into what’s killing them. Sign the petition now to give these puffins a fighting chance.
