A Stroll on the San Pedro River

 

Our Executive Director, Louise, immersed us in an enchanting virtual tour of the San Pedro River during our first Coffee Break with Sky Island Alliance. During the webinar, we walked alongside Louise listening to soothing running water, birds singing in the riparian canopy overhead, saw a lively troop of coati, a swimming Sonoran mud turtle, and a host of other amazing creatures inhabiting this important river habitat at the U.S.-Mexico border. Border wall construction is planned to cross the San Pedro River and cut off wildlife migration between the U.S. and Mexico, however Louise lifts our spirits by showing that construction has yet to begin and that the river and wildlife is freely flowing over the border today.
