How we've kept the Northwest wild

Through creative and effective strategies, Conservation Northwest has protected hundreds of thousands of acres of wildlands, wildlife habitat, and old growth, and touched thousands of lives throughout the greater Northwest since our founding in 1989.

Our successes include

• Our wildlife monitoring cameras recently took the first pictures of the first documented wolf pack in Washington in 70 years
• We led, and won, the ten-year effort to gain protection for Canada lynx under the Endangered Species Act
• We protected 25,000 acres of the Loomis State Forest in north-central Washington, essential habitat for lynx
• We helped introduce Pacific fisher, a native forest mammal, to the Olympic Peninsula
• We achieved, with Canadian conservation groups, a major commitment from BC government to protect critical habitat for the endangered mountain caribou
  
• Over the years we've spearheaded a number of successful partnerships and coalitions, most notably The Cascades Conservation Partnership
