Rosalie Barrow Edge (November 3, 1877 – November 30, 1962) was an American environmentalist and suffragist. In 1929, she established the Emergency Conservation Committee to expose the conservation establishment's ineffectiveness and advocate for species preservation. In 1934, Edge also founded the world's first preserve for birds of prey—Hawk Mountain Sanctuary near Kempton, Pennsylvania. Edge was considered the most militant conservationist of her time, and she clashed publicly for decades with leaders of the Audubon Society over approaches to wildlife preservation. An environmentalist colleague described her in 1948 as "the only honest, unselfish, indomitable hellcat in the history of conservation".

rdfs:comment	Rosalie Edge (Nova York, 3 de novembre de 1877 - Nova York, 20 de novembre de 1962) fou una defensora del medi ambient, força coneguda a Nova York, sufragista i ornitòloga aficionada que el 1929 va crear el Comitè de Conservació d'Emergències (ECC) per exposar la ineficàcia dels governants en la conservació i defensà fermament la preservació d'espècies. El 1934 Edge també va fundar la primera reserva mundial d’ocells rapinyaires: el Santuari Hawk Mountain prop de Kempton, Pennsilvània. Durant la Gran Depressió, Edge va ser considerada la conservacionista més militant dels Estats Units (Hawk of Mercy). El 1948, un perfil d'ella a The New Yorker la descrivia com a "l'única honesta, desinteressada i fera indomable de la història de la conservació" (New Yorker, 17 d'abril de 1948).
