Conservation of waterbird populations in the U.S. has come about via many routes, many of which are associated with the direct protection of waterbird habitats and the management of the resources within. Successful approaches to waterbird conservation during the 20th century have involved the passing of important legislation, the foundation of conservation organizations, the banning of the use of contaminants known to be deleterious to waterbirds (and other wildlife), the implementation of hunting regulations, the development of the science of Conservation Biology, and the evolution of Citizen Science.
