PROTECTING NATIVE SPECIES
Our Commitment
Protecting Virginia’s native species for both wildlife and vegetation to support ecosystem integrity and resilience.
THE ISSUE
Virginia’s wildlife, their habitats, and their food sources are growingly threatened by encroachment and climate change. As human populations continue to expand into and impact areas of the state, we must ensure initiatives that protect the health and safe movement of our native species. Protecting wildlife helps to keep our ecosystems intact.
