Share the Habitat
An action you can take at home to help reduce conflict with coyotes in urban areas.
What is securing your trash?
What is not feeding wildlife?
Wildlife can mistake this material for food, which can block their digestive systems or release harmful chemicals as it degrades.
What is plastic?
By planting native species, we create safe spaces and food sources for these pollinators.
What are bees?
This type of diet is linked with the lowest greenhouse gas emissions of any diet.
What is a vegan or vegetarian diet?
This desert antelope was once extinct in the wild but made a comeback thanks to breeding and conservation efforts.
What is the Arabian Oryx?
Surviving isolated in an urban park for years and crossing major freeways, P-22 became a catalyst for this wildlife infrastructure project.
What is the Wallis-Annenberg Wildlife Crossing?
Composting helps reduce methane emissions from landfills, which is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to this.
What is climate change?
Plating native milkweed helps support this species, which breeds early in the Coachella Valley.
What is the Western Monarch butterfly?
By reducing our carbon footprint, we help animals worldwide who face threats from disease and food scarcity caused by this global issue.
What is climate change?
This desert plant provides nectar for pollinators and is often used in seed planting programs at TLD.
A method that helped restore island fox population numbers after the ecological crash.
What is removing invasive pigs?
What is captive breeding programs?
What is banning DDT?
Covering trash cans properly reduces predator populations for this native animal.
What is a desert tortoise?
Planting native species supports pollinators, prevents invasive takeovers, protects biodiversity, and conserves this most vital resource.
What is water?
Giraffes are natural herbivores. Following their example by eating more plants helps fight this major case of deforestation.
What is livestock farming?
This iconic desert plant can live over 150 years, store large amounts of water, and provide habitat for birds and other wildlife.
What is the saguaro cactus
A consequence of taking an animal like the patas monkey from the wild for the pet trade.
What is disrupting the social structure of the troop?
What is reducing seed dispersal?
What is affecting predator/prey dynamics?
What is increasing stress or risk of disease transmission?
A disease that can spread from feral cats to kit foxes or coyotes.
What is mange, distemper, or parvo?
These invasive animals damage ecosystems by uprooting native plants, causing soil erosion, and spreading invasive species.
What are feral pigs?
The average American eats more than 250 pounds of this food each year, which is about double the world average.
What is meat?
Herds of this species once numbered 20 to 30 individuals, but today many have fewer than six due to threats in the wild.
What are giraffes?
A conservation goal met by desert parks in limiting visitor numbers or requiring permits.
What is reducing habitat degradation?
What is minimizing wildlife disturbance?
What is controlling human impact over the area?
How desert predators are impacted by household cleaning chemicals leeching into the soil and being taken up by herbivores.
What is accumulating in the food chain and harming predators through poisoning or disease?
Feral pigs have caused the decline of several endangered species by destroying native habitats. Planting and protecting native vegetation helps preserve this measure of ecosystem health.
What is biodiversity?
80% of agricultural land is used for livestock production, and beef alone takes up 60% of that land while providing this percentage of global calories.
What is 2%?
Once ranging from the southwestern US to Argentina, this apex predator now relies on wildlife corridors due to habitat loss.
What is jaguar?
