Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge is a U.S. National Wildlife Refuge off the southwestern Oregon Coast. It is one of six National Wildlife Refuges comprising the Oregon Coast National Wildlife Refuge Complex. The Oregon Islands provides wilderness protection to 1,853 small islands, rocks, and reefs plus two headlands, totaling spanning 〔 of Oregon's coastline from the Oregon–California border to Tillamook Head. There are sites in six of the seven coastal counties of Oregon. From north to south they are Clatsop, Tillamook, Lincoln, Lane, Coos, and Curry counties. (Douglas County is the only coastal Oregon county not included in the refuge.) ==History== The ''Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge'' was created in 1935 by the federal government.〔 〕 Haystack Rock off Cannon Beach was added to the refuge in 1968, and then became a wilderness area in 1978.〔 〕 The first mainland addition to the refuge came in 1991 when Coquille Point near Bandon was added.〔 〕 In 1999, the shipwreck of the ''New Carissa'' near Coos Bay spilled oil that killed some birds at the refuge.〔 〕
