Why are wetlands important?
HABITAT
Wetlands provide habitat for over 900 different species of birds, amphibians, mammals, insects and plants. Many of these plants and animals are threathened or endangered and rely on wetlands for survival.
RECREATION
More than 60 million bird watchers, 14 million hunters and countless others enjoy wetlands for many different purposes, including fishing, canoeing and kayaking.
FLOOD CONTROL
Wetlands associated with rivers and lakes capture and retain water, reducing the duration and severity of floods. Inland wetlands intercept surface flow and slow it down, reducing the potential for floods and minimizing drought.
WATER QUALITY
Plants and soils in wetlands purify water by filtering nitrogen, phosphorous, sediment and toxic chemicals
