Wolverines have gained candidate species status under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) following a Montana District Court decision late yesterday. The Court agreed with us and our partners that the wolverine is entitled to additional ESA protections while the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) considers its 2020 decision to deny a petition to list the wolverine as threatened or endangered.
We need your help to understand how climate change is impacting pikas in Colorado. If you are ready to join the Pika Patrol, be sure to sign up for a training session this summer.
Join us to monitor wildlife using remote triggered cameras on East Vail Pass in an area of two proposed underpasses and one proposed overpass. On most volunteer days, we will check and move cameras to new locations throughout the study area. In October, we will take the cameras down for the season. The ability to hike off trail and at elevation while carrying equipment is strongly recommended.
Pikas and alpine ecosystems are at-risk from climate change. Bison and other prairie wildlife are losing their habitat. You can help solve both of these problems with one action: donating to the Colorado Carbon Offset Partnership.
