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.
