Tufted Puffins spend most of their lives far out on the deep ocean, but they venture to solid ground to nest in burrows on rocky headlands and small islands around the North Pacific.  They have recently experienced sharp declines across the southern portion of their range. Tens of thousands who once bred in the California Current marine ecosystem, from San Francisco Bay to southern British Columbia. Today they number about 2,000. Multiple efforts are underway to determine the cause of their decline, most likely related to rising sea temperatures and other climate change-driven shifts.
