STORIES FROM THE WILDLANDS CONSERVANCY
Strategic Conservation: How Wildlands Supports Public Lands Beyond Preserve Boundaries
Public lands face increasing threats to their legal protections and landscape connectivity. The Wildlands Conservancy is uniquely positioned to create lasting conservation impact, working through our threshold preserves that connect to iconic landscapes like Bears Ears and Sand to Snow National Monuments. Through our ongoing landscape-scale efforts, we remain dedicated to preserving these landscapes and impacting conservation to the public lands beyond our boundaries. Learn more about Wildlands’ initiatives in this article by Four Corners Regional Director, Dave Herrero.

Inspired by the successful acquisition of the 320-acre Preserve and plans for its protection, a private landowner reached out to The Wildlands Conservancy about the conservation of their adjacent 95-acre parcel. A testament to the role of committed individuals in land conservation efforts, the land was purchased nearly 30 years ago and held until the right party could be identified to permanently protect and care for the property.
