Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge

Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge isn’t just a sanctuary for migratory birds and salmon—it’s a testament to decades of treaty rights activism and environmental justice. Named after the Nisqually elder who fought tirelessly for Indigenous fishing rights, this refuge represents what happens when conservation meets courage. 3,000 acres of tidal estuary where nature and history intersect. Rep a refuge that stands for something bigger than birdwatching.
