This week, the Sonoma Land Trust announced a $2.1 million grant from the Moore Foundation to further strengthen and protect the region’s most important wildlife “linkage” system, which passes through the heart of the Sonoma Valley.

The goal of this new project is to catalog and eventually manage wildlife movement across a wide swath of Northern California, from the Marin Headlands to the Blue Ridge-Berryessa Natural Area. Motion activated cameras located in areas identified as possible places where wildlife try to pass across the crowded valley help document the animals in the Sonoma Valley.

To see the types of animals that have shown up on the cameras, and learn more about the project, read the story from Christian Kallen in the Sonoma Index-Tribune, Sonoma Land Trust gets $2.1 million for wildlife study project
