STORIES FROM THE WILDLANDS CONSERVANCY
Wildfire Prevention at Wind Wolves Preserve
Wildfire prevention is a top priority at our 93,000-acre Wind Wolves Preserve, and The Wildlands Conservancy is taking a practical approach. With support from CAL FIRE, targeted grazing helps reduce flammable dry grasses while supporting native plants, pollinators, and wildlife.
Building Wildfire Resiliency on the Sonoma Coast
Due to climate change and other contributing factors, California wildfires are only growing in severity, and the wildfire season persists for longer. As of August 6, a total of 4,886 wildfires have burned a cumulative of 791,432 acres. Year-to-date, the number of wildfires and the number of acres burned are higher than the five-year average. For this reason, The Wildlands Conservancy welcomes innovative approaches to forest management in order to bolster wildfire resiliency at our Sonoma Coast preserves and throughout the state.
