Thanks to the Parks in Peril program from the USAID, for the first time, Ajo-Bavispe Wildlife Reserve in Sonora and the broader Sonoran Sky Islands had enough resources to support a number of conservation actions-from bird monitoring, sustainable ranching workshops, and Mexican prairie dog conversation projects to the acquisition of Rancho Los Fresnos.
