Within days of outgoing Arizona Governor Ducey beginning construction of an illegal border wall through black bear, ocelot and jaguar habitat in the San Rafael Valley, we systematically documented the progress of his makeshift, shipping container wall. We are surveying over 150 miles of barbed wire fences within the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, which serves as an important pathway and winter range for the Paunsaugunt mule deer herd. We are leading a camera monitoring project to collect critical baseline data regarding the status of martens in the Southern San Juan Mountain of northern New Mexico. We are partnering with Texas A&M AgriLife Research to study how human disturbances influence predator populations and their impact on Gunnison sage-grouse conservation. We have developed deep-learning models to identify and easily map prairie dog colonies in New Mexico and Utah. 670569 0 723 Eastern Wildway: In Gorges State Park in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, we have completed two field seasons of monitoring four small culverts that were installed to facilitate road crossings for timber rattlesnakes and eastern box turtles. Since 2015, our motion-sensitive cameras have been used to study local concerns about wolves' impact on game species. Because red wolves continue to suffer from a lack of national awareness, we coordinated with the Associated Press on a major update about the wolf program, a story that was picked up by over 900 news outlets across the country. Future Forests Reimagined, our transboundary initiative to reconnect Old Forests in the Northern Appalachian-Acadian-Wabanaki bioregion brings our indigenous-guided forest planning process to the UNESCO Champlain-Adirondack Biosphere and eight UNESCO Biosphere Regions in eastern Canada. Through workshops and international collaborations, we support collaborators in development of their plans to identify and protect old forests and expand the use of ecological forestry aligning with traditional conservation knowledge systems. 492166 5000 12723 Pacific Wildway: In August, we completed the first-ever comprehensive database and interactive map of wildlife crossings in California. We are collaborating with Caltrans, Nevada Department of Transportation and Pathways for Wildlife to gather camera images, wildlife-vehicle collision and GPS telemetry data on Highway 395 in Northern California and Nevada. We are partnering with the California Tahoe Conservancy and Pathways for Wildlife to study solutions that will balance wildfire prevention with habitat conservation to best serve local communities and wildlife. 523406 46400 4000 Other Programs: In Mexico, we focus on the sustainability and adequate management of Natural Protected Areas, which face funding challenges due to federal environmental budget cuts. We lead the NOSSA coalition, and together, we identified obstacles to generating revenue from fees for using natural resources within these protected areas. We are promoting healthy habitat management in Northern Mexico's Cocspera watershed to enhance wildlife connectivity along the Sierra Azul El Pinito ecological corridor. In partnership with Pronatura Noreste, we are creating a habitat management plan to reduce the risk to parrot nests from increasing wildfires and encourage community stewardship. On the policy side, Wildlands Network co-hosted the George Washington University Law School's Environmental and Energy Law Program annual Shapiro Symposium. In March, President Biden announced the first-ever administration-wide guidance for all federal agencies to incorporate ecological connectivity and wildlife corridor considerations into their policies and planning. These embraced the recommendations of the federal Connectivity Policy Coalition, which we host, which has been working to provide the Biden administration with expert advice since 2020. In Mexico in 2023, we saw years of focused advocacy pay off as the Mexican Congress passed critical legislation to protect the lands, water and wildlife of Mexico, based on expert recommendations and public support provided by us and our coalition partners. 523406 46400 4000 2492498 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 17 0 33 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 12 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 AK CA CO KY MA MD NC NH NJ NM NY OR PA SC TN UT VA WA X Katie Davis 3852294849 PO Box 243 Salt Lake City UT 84110 Fred Koontz President 4.00 X 0 0 0 Conrad Reining Vice President 4.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Pupke Treasurer 4.00 X 0 0 0 Jeanne Calhoun Secretary 4.00 X 0 0 0 Anne Baker Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Kerston Swartz Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Micheli Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 David Steen Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Danielle Droitsch Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Abbey Camaclang Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Francis Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Olson Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Roberto de la Maza Hernandez Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Karina Lopez Ivich Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Fernando Ochoa Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Katie Davis Executive Director 40.00 X 110000 0 12 110000 0 12 1 0 0 0 0 389331 2569540 2958871 Other 22461 22461 22461 10121 10121 1215 1123 92 92 92 Other 6532 6532 6532 2998077 0 0 39206 43032 43032 12500 12500 110000 66000 27500 16500 1564763 1164875 290424 109464 150988 125321 18118 7549 149144 123790 17897 7457 6877 6877 13350 13350 676 676 568184 548348 19836 650 650 91659 63206 25541 2912 14263 14263 101620 52303 48717 600 117385 97978 13039 6368 33123 33123 2863 2863 11271 4560 6711 Supplies and equipment 168597 137541 31049 7 Other 2145 2145 3163090 2492498 519735 150857 2101354 900825 356544 1262716 264849 355464 1654 18308 5861 42952 2863 0 40089 19696 47131 47326 41113 2808077 2654853 64452 86775 194846 188425 47762 41336 307060 316536 X 694430 618879 1806587 1719438 2501017 2338317 2808077 2654853 -165013 2313 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 2100310 2354473 2886606 3098747 2975599 13415735 2100310 2354473 2886606 3098747 2975599 13415735 5113472 8302263 359 594 343 455 10121 11872 1228 1288 1876 6532 10924 3181 13303 7459 5733 29676 13468207 0.61640 0.87410 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 1044 4652 5696 3157394 3163090 308155 77039 0 0 308155 308155 462233 5696 5696 77039 77039 115559 1044 1044 Part I-A, Line 1 The Organization seeks to influence legislation at the federal and state level that furthers its mission. 1 194846 105384 111805 188425 1 X 19696 25000 2213 1215 45694 24758 -3510 1351 201 19696 23338 3037 1617 24758 31774 740 9176 23338 27295 4936 457 31774 0.55110 0.32830 0.12060 1 0 42952 2863 40089 40089 Operating lease liability 41336 41336 2999714 2313 2313 2997401 676 676 2998077 3162414 0 3162414 676 676 3163090 Part IV, Line 1b: Funds received and disbursed are not reported as revenue or expense of Wildlands Network in the audited financial statements or Form 990.
