Tools for Implementing CT's Wildlife Action Plan: the Conservation Action Tracker & Conservation Opportunity Areas

Presenters: Brian Hess, Wildlife Biologist, Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection, Wildlife Division and Katy Bischoff, PhD Student, University of Connecticut 

The Conservation Action Tracker and Conservation Opportunity Areas are two implementation tools developed for the 2025 Connecticut Wildlife Action Plan. The Conservation Action Tracker helps partners communicate conservation successes and connect with other organizations while the Conservation Opportunity Areas spatially guide where partners can take actions to maximize conservation benefit. The webinar will provide an overview, explain the tools, and include a demonstration.
