Edith’s Checkerspot Workshop – Information Sharing

Logo banner

 

This workshop brought together the Bay, Quino, and Taylor’s checkerspot conservation community to discuss biology, recovery, reintroduction and the regulatory landscape. The goal of the workshop was to strengthen collective recovery efforts by providing a forum for information sharing and catalyzing priority actions between practitioners working on recovery of each sub-species.
