Elizabeth N. Flint

Elizabeth (Beth) Flint is the Supervisory Wildlife Biologist for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at the Pacific Remote Islands National Wildlife Refuge Complex, and the Seabird Coordinator for the Pacific Islands Refuges, a position she has held for the past 28 years. Beth received her Ph.D. in Biology from UCLA in 1985 and has authored dozens of scientific publications. But most importantly, she has served as a role model and mentor for hundreds of nascent seabird biologists. You would be hard-pressed to find a seabird biologist in the Pacific who has not worked with, or benefited from, Beth’s knowledge. She is a passionate advocate for habitat restoration and protection, and has led the charge on multiple, complex eradication projects that collectively benefit millions of seabirds. Beth is a life member of the Pacific Seabird Group and has dedicated her life and career to seabird conservation.

In recognition of mentorship to early career seabird biologists, and unwavering dedication to protect and conserve seabirds across the tropical Pacific, the Pacific Seabird Group honors Dr. Elizabeth Nell Flint with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
