The East Bay Regional Park District, in cooperation with other land management agencies in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, has finished its inaugural report, “NatureCheck: A report on the health of wildlife in the East Bay.” The Park District partnered with California State Parks, East Bay Municipal Utility District, Contra Costa Water District, and San Francisco Public Utilities Commission to assess the ecological health of 225,000 acres of public land in the East Bay that found that, generally, wildlife is in fair condition, with most species showing stable trends. There is reason to be cautious, however, as the data does not yet include the last two years of drought.
Songbirds are often beautiful, and their songs are familiar, pleasing sounds to many people!
Learn about the recently released “NatureCheck: A report on the health of wildlife in the East Bay”, a study that creates a baseline for measuring wildlife health in the East Bay.
