Wildlife
Animals help maintain a balanced ecosystem - which is good for everyone. They also serve as indicators when problems arise that will affect us.
So we protect the habitats of endangered, threatened, or sensitive species, particularly mountain caribou, lynx, and trout. Because these species live in old growth forests, our work preserving those areas acts hand-in-hand with our efforts to protect wildlife.

Caribou:
A Case Study The 34 North American caribou in the Selkirk Mountains represent all that is left in the lower 48 states. Yet the U.S. Forest Service allows snowmobiling in their habitat, a policy we believe violates the Endangered Species Act. To preserve a small section of public land for caribou, we joined other conservation groups to pursue legal action.
