Have you seen a turtle, a small snake under a piece of wood, a bat in your shingles, or a frog on the road?
Many species in the Capital region are at risk of becoming extinct or being extripated. Others are not at risk yet, but have declining populations and diminishing habitats that will place them at risk in the future.
HAT is working with volunteers, land owners and managers, and citizen scientists to learn more about select focal species, to conserve and improve their habitat, and ultimately to improve their future, and future of others species that share their homes.
visit our Wiki Page for detailed information on our focal species at risk.
