Money is being continually raised to purchase property on the island to protect and extend the habitat.The property, where the famous Dauphin Island Goat Trees stand, was purchased recently. A dedicated crew worked on the trails and it is now a protected refuge for tropical travelers.

It was a good thing that Dwight Cooley did not take the lyrics in that song seriously, it said " don't fence me in." Thanks for donating the fence Dwight!
