Tahoe Basin Wildlife Connectivity Study

Wildlands Network and Pathways for Wildlife are conducting a wildlife connectivity study throughout the Tahoe Basin. Funded by the California Tahoe Conservancy, this multifaceted study will utilize GIS modeling, conduct an extensive camera survey, and collect roadkill data to identify where and how wildlife are moving throughout the Basin. By collecting this data, we will be able to understand where there are bottlenecks and barriers to movement and where land management enhancements can be made to improve wildlife connectivity. Ultimately, this study will inform land managers where there are critical areas for wildlife and potential locations for wildlife crossing infrastructure.
