How can I, as just someone who cares, raise awareness of the plight of Arizona's native wildlife?
Answer:
In Arizona:
Privately owned lands......12 million acres
Federal Government Lands....31 million acres
Indian Trust Lands.......20 million acres
State Trust Lands.......9.4 million acres
Only 17% of the state is available for habitat destruction.
create a blog and write about it
get involved with an organization that promotes wildlife reserve such as The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. Arizona game and fish has info on their web page under wildlife and conservation.
Oh, those Mexicans...
Become a docent in the Coronado National Forest, the Saguaro National Park or another area where people often see the natural beauty of the area but don't necessarily understand or fully appreciate it's beauty and biodiversity. The state park system has gems like Pichaco Peak that could use your support, too.
Support organizations like The Nature Conservancy that help buy property adjoining wilderness or open areas. (Did I mention they might need volunteers?)
Good luck. We visited last year and it was gorgeous.
