This 190-acre project aims to perform several wildlife improvements on the landscape. First, removing over 10,000 ft. of hazardous fence on site where entanglements of deer, tule elk and other wildlife have been recorded. Second, an irrigated hedgerow planting will be implemented to provide diverse food and cover resources for wildlife populations in pasturelands adjacent to a watercourse. Lastly, planting and protecting new and existing blue oak and valley oak seedlings in existing oak woodlands to establish a new age class for the continuation of that ecosystem.
