Join us April 1 at 9:30 a.m. for our next virtual Coffee Break to learn more about our exciting new project bridging grassland bird conservation and regenerative ranching in Sonora. Our speakers will be SIA’s very own Wildlife Program Manager Eamon Harrity and Mexico Program Manager Zach Palma.

Only a few sections of the border within the Path of the Jaguar are still passable to most wildlife. One of these sections is the San Rafael Valley between the Patagonia and Huachuca mountains. However, once wildlife traverse the border, there are still a multitude of threats they must face including dangerous roads, lack of water, fences, mining, and development. Join us for our next virtual Coffee Break to hear from Aaron Mrotek, the manager of The Nature Conservancy’s Patagonia-Sonoita Creek Preserve, and SIA’s Stewardship Manager Bryon Lichtenhan. They’ll discuss what our organizations are doing to improve the conditions for wildlife throughout this important landscape in partnership with other NGOs, state, and federal agencies. You'll also learn how to get involved with various projects.
