The marbled murrelet typically has a lifespan of around 15 to 20 years in the wild. Factors such as predation, environmental conditions, and human impacts can influence their longevity. These seabirds are known for their unique nesting habits, laying eggs in old-growth forests rather than on cliffs or open ground. Conservation efforts are essential to protect their habitats and ensure their survival.

The marbled murrelet, a seabird that nests in old-growth forests, relies on mature redwood trees for its breeding habitat. High-density redwood stands provide the necessary structural elements, such as large branches and platforms, where murrelets can safely nest. However, as forest density changes due to logging or other disturbances, the availability of suitable nesting sites can diminish, negatively impacting murrelet populations. Thus, maintaining healthy, dense redwood habitats is crucial for the conservation of this species.

Xantus's murrelet is a sea bird found in the California current system in Pacific ocean. In 2012 the species was further divided in two sub-species, Scripps's murrelet and Guadalupe murrelet.
Sequoia sempervirens is the last surviving species of the genus Sequoia in the cypress family Cupressaceae. Common names include coastredwood, giant redwood, and Californiaredwood. Stretching as tall as 375 feet (115 metres), they provide a home to a variety of mammals, birds such as the Spotted owl and the Marbled Murrelet, reptiles, and amphibians.For more information, click on the relatedlink(s) listed below:
