Have you ever wondered why conservation is so important? Arizona’s deserts are home to an array of unique wildlife and plant species, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth, along with outdoor recreational activities, and deep cultural values for Native American communities. WTMC was created to conserve and prevent the potential loss of the natural and cultural resources of the White Tank Mountains, a crown jewel of the West Valley. Conservation efforts not only help maintain the balance of these precious ecosystems, but also help control our balance of water systems, ensuring that these resources are available for both wildlife and communities. Conservation provides essential services that benefit communities and ecosystems, such as flood control and soil stabilization. WTMC is dedicated to conservation efforts to help ensure Arizona’s desert landscapes remain vibrant and healthy, benefiting wildlife, communities, and future generations. #WTMC #StayWild #Conservation (fb)
