Backyard Wildlife Habitat Backyards can be great habitats for wildlife if they offer food, water, cover and places to raise young. This program teaches people how to assess their yard and make it wildlife-friendly. Then the yard can be certified. Now schools and businesses are getting involved too. This program, geared for grades K-12, offers teacher workshops, classroom materials and web resources.
Volunteers also lead workshops in classrooms.
The twenty-five endangered species in this program were carefully chosen to represent broader environmental threats that endanger species. The Western Field Office works to help the desert tortoise, Arroyo Southwestern toad and Sonoran Pronghorn antelope. All rights reserved.
