All pelican designs have been reproduced in the form of scale replicas, which are available for purchase from the Pensacola News Journal. Other Pelicans in Paradise products include T-shirts, posters and magnets. All proceeds from sponsorship and merchandise go to benefit the News Journal's [[Newspapers in Education]] literacy program.

==Pelican locations==Initially located in close proximity to each other in the downtown area, the Pelican statues were returned to the original sponsors or sold to the highest bidder after the program's end in 2005. Sadly, some were vandalized or stolen and will never be relocated. The map below is imported from a [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=106183886709132694763.000451557f4d84d8137ce&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=30.436242,-87.252045&spn=0.336268,0.513611&z=11 Google Maps] project by [[User:RenegadeSith]]. :''Map incomplete.

Finding the pelicans became a popular scavenger hunt during the program's run. Incomplete map below. See also: [http://www.pensacolanewsjournal.com/pelicans/pelicansmap.shtml Pelican Map] and [http://www.pensacolanewsjournal.com/pelicans/images/40-birdmap_print.pdf PDF]
