Conservation in Great Plains Grasslands
A ‘Call to Action’ has emerged in the Great Plains to scale-up
conservation on private lands and meet the sustainability targets that benefit
both agriculture and wildlife. In 2020, a multi-state, areawide planning
initiative produced the first biome-scale framework for grassland wildlife
conservation on the region’s sustainable working rangelands. This initiative
features an action-based framework for 2021-2025 focused on addressing the two
most severe and large-scale threats to the Great Plains biome: woodland
expansion and land use conversion.
