The J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge was created as the Sanibel National Wildlife Refuge on December 1, 1945, during the administration of Pres. Harry S. Truman. The refuge was renamed in 1967 to honor J.N. "Ding" Darling, a syndicated editorial cartoonist. He wintered on Captiva Island and advocated the establishment of the refuge. Situated on a barrier island in Southwest Florida, the refuge is a jewel among the 553 units of the National Wildlife Refuge System. Sanibel, once cherished by the conquistadors, is renowned as one of the best places on the planet to collect seashells and watch birds. Now an island-city, incorporated in 1974, Sanibel is famous for its land development code, which helps make the city a special place. "Ding" Darling would not completely approve of what has happened to the island he once loved, but he would applaud the human effort that has saved the island's wetlands and nurtured his wildlife refuge.

Located along Florida's southwest Gulf coast in Lee and Charlotte counties, the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) Complex includes Pine Island, Matlacha Pass, Island Bay, Caloosahatchee, and J.N. "Ding" Darling NWRs (Figure 1). The Pine Island, Matlacha Pass, Island Bay, and Caloosahatchee refuges were each established with the primary purpose as a preserve and breeding ground for native birds. These four refuges currently cover a total of about 1,201 acres (486 hectares [ha]), as follows: Pine Island - 602.24 acres (243.72 ha); Matlacha Pass - 538.25 acres (217.82 ha); Island Bay - 20.24 acres (8.19 ha); and Caloosahatchee - 40 acres (16.19 ha). Located within an estuarine system consisting predominantly of mangrove swamps, these four refuges provide a diversity of habitats that include mangrove islands and shorelines; saltwater marshes and ponds; tidal flats; and upland hardwood forests. They also provide protection for 13 federally listed and 25 state-listed species, as well as many species of wading birds, waterbirds, raptors and birds of prey, nearctic-neotropical migratory birds, shorebirds, and seabirds.

The vibrant Sanibel and Captiva Islands are ecological marvels compared to Florida's many overbuilt barrier islands. Development began with the construction of the Sanibel Island Lighthouse in 1884, when only the lighthouse keeper and assistant and their families lived on the island. Noted conservationist Jay N. "Ding" Darling led the charge in preserving the islands' wildlife and natural beauty from the greed of real estate speculators and land developers in the 1930s. Former presidents like Harry Truman and cabinet-level executives worked alongside Sanibel and Captiva residents, setting up preserves and wildlife refuges to guard the integrity of the islands' unique natural blessings, abundant wildlife and aquatic stores. Charles LeBuff and Betty Anholt review the evolution of the islands' conservation ethic and how it perseveres even today.
