Species


The spectacular diversity of habitats in the Tulare Basin provides home to hundreds of plant and animal species - many of which are endemic to the Tulare Basin. Because of habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation, many species that once thrived in the Tulare Basin are reduced to small, isolated populations or restricted to pockets of protected land. Over 100 Tulare Basin species are endangered, threatened, rare, or otherwise classified as species of special concern on federal and California state government lists. Climate change promises to exacerbate the already-challenging task of protecting Tulare Basin-endemic species.

The Tulare Basin Wildlife Partners work with resource managers and landowners to protect and restore critical upland and wetland habitats and connect and expand existing conservation areas. By building larger habitat "blocks" and re-establishing historic wildlife and riparian corridors, we are reducing the risk of species extirpations and extinctions, enabling endemic plants and animal to re-colonize native habitat, and helping local species adapt to a changing climate.
