The Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, occupying roughly two-thirds of Kodiak Island, is home to the Kodiak Bear, one of the six land mammals indigenous to Kodiak Island, including the red fox, river otter, short-tail weasel, little brown bat and tundra vole.  Imported in the last century, wild mountain goats roam the mountain peaks above Ivor Cove and Sitka blacktail deer and reindeer graze in range. 

The waters off Ivor Cove have sea otter, seal, sea lion, and several species of whale.  The region also heralds over 240 species of birds including bald eagles, hawks, owls, raven, swans, puffin, and a variety of sea duck. 

Ivor Cove within Deadman Bay is in close proximity to Kodiak’s famous salmon and steelhead rivers: Karluk, Fraser, and Ayakulik.  Ivor Cove offers access to a wide variety of species, including halibut, king crab, groundfish, chinook, coho, sockeye, chum and pink salmon, rainbow trout, dolly varden, and steelhead. 

Although Ivor Cove is within the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, the property, zoned Conservation, is developable and sub-dividable under the authority of Title 16 & 17 of the Kodiak Island Borough Code.
