Restore the Habitat: In the Upper Rogue watershed in southwest Oregon, the oak-prairie ecosystem is currently undergoing considerable restoration. The Klamath Siskiyou Oak Network and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife are working together to oversee the development of this initiative.
$2.78 Million is Given to the Upper Rogue Initiative to Restore the Habitat
America the Beautiful Challenge program has provided the project with a federal grant to the tune of $2.78 million so that it can move on. Its goal is to make it easier to apply for grant money for innovative conservation and restoration initiatives anywhere in the United States.

The Klamath Siskiyou Oak Network will be able to restore habitat that has been degraded as a result of conifer encroachment, invasive species, and climate change as a result of the increased financing that has been made available.
Elva Manquera-DeShields, who is in charge of outreach, underlined how important it is to restore habitat for the animals that live in the area.
She explained that the ultimate purpose of the project was to “have short-term and long-term benefits for birds, big game species, and other wildlife that are dependent on the oak woodland and oak conifer habitat.”
The Klamath Siskiyou Oak Network will collaborate with the newly established Habitat Division of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife to carry out restoration work during the following year.
