The Ocean’s Gardeners

Floating on their backs in kelp forests, sea otters look like they’re simply enjoying life - grooming their fur, cracking open sea urchins on their bellies, holding hands while they sleep. But these playful marine mammals are actually ecosystem engineers, maintaining the kelp forests that support countless other species. Without sea otters controlling sea urchin populations, entire underwater forests collapse into barren “urchin barrens.” This pin represents keystone conservation: protecting one charismatic species that holds entire ecosystems together.

Frequently Asked Questions

How were the species chosen for the series?

The species were carefully researched and selected by students based on their official conservation status (like Critically Endangered or Endangered), their importance to North American ecosystems, and their power to tell a larger story about the challenges facing wildlife today.

Where exactly do the profits go?

100% of the profits are donated to registered and licensed partner organizations. We prioritize established wildlife sanctuaries that specialize in rescue and rehabilitation, as well as land conservation groups that work to protect the specific habitats of the animals featured in our series. We publish a transparency report on our campaign page annually.

Will you be releasing more species in the future?

That's the plan! The goal of "Voices of the Wild" is to grow into an ongoing series that highlights more animals in need. Sales from this first edition will help fund the creation of the next series. Follow us on social media to vote on which species we feature next!

Is the packaging suitable for a gift?

Absolutely. Each pin is attached to its beautifully designed fact card and packaged with care, making it a thoughtful and meaningful gift right out of the box. It’s perfect for students, teachers, nature lovers, and anyone passionate about conservation.
