Salt Pond Restoration Revives Wetlands with 80 Bird Species Returning
Restoration in South San Diego Bay transformed former salt ponds into tidal wetlands, leading to significant wildlife recovery. Observations recorded 80 bird species, 22 fish species, and 10 invertebrate species. The project restored natural tidal flows and boosted habitat diversity. Native plants quickly reappeared, signaling strong ecological recovery in the area.
