- Living Landscapes Priority Areas [Minnesota]
- Description
- The BWSR Living Landscape data combines several layers of information to help guide conservation programs with considerations for habitat benefits across landscapes. Base layers include the DNR Wildlife Action Map that prioritizes important habitat areas; potential dispersal areas for the Rusty patched bumble bee as derived from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, MnDOT highways prioritized as part of the Monarch Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances (CCAA), Habitat Friendly Utility Corridors, and the location of highest density BWSR funded easement and habitat projects. , The BWSR Living Landscape data was created to guide BWSR efforts to protect at-risk wildlife, increase landscape resiliency, and expand habitat corridors along waterways, roads and utility corridors. The purpose of the data is to guide decision making for the BWSR Living Landscapes Initiative including project selection for individual conservation programs. The data will be updated periodically to add new habitat corridors that are being developed across the state. , The BWSR conservation project location data (BMP data entered into eLINK) used for this analysis were from Spring 2024.
