The CPNA was designated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service as a core recovery area for the leopard lizard, giant kangaroo rat, woolly threads and the endangered San Joaquin kit fox. The designation is established in the Recovery Plan for Upland Species of the San Joaquin Valley USRP. To manage the CPNA and meet conservation goals, the BLM in cooperation with recipents are working to complete a vegetation map of this region. |
