Looking for a fun way to get outdoors, explore, and learn about wildlife? This Spring (March 15th - April 15th), we are hosting a virtual BioBlitz through iNaturalist. BioBlitzes are used to gather citizen science data and get a snapshot of the wildlife in a certain area. Lincoln National Forest is encouraging individuals, families, and small groups to get outdoors and discover life re-emerging on the forest!
The United States Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and WildEarth Guardians reached an out-of-court resolution in the case WildEarth Guardians vs. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, et al. CV-13-00151-TUC-RCC in U.S. District Court in Arizona concerning the Mexican Spotted owl.
Per the resolution, the parties have jointly filed for dismissal of the associated injunction with the Court. Once the Judge approves the motion, the injunction that has limited certain timber management activities across the five national forests in New Mexico and on the Tonto National Forest in Arizona over the past year will be dissolved. Forest Service staff will work individually with affected local businesses for plans to resume activities on National Forest System lands.
