Greater Sage-Grouse are famously — some might say, infamously — known for their association with, and impetus for, a twenty-year effort to conserve and restore their sagebrush habitat across the American West. Hear the latest on the ecology, threats, and continuing campaign to save this fascinating icon of the Sagebrush Sea!
About the Speaker
Mark Salvo is the Conservation Director at Oregon Natural Desert Association, a conservation organization based in Bend with a mission of protecting, defending, and restoring Oregon’s high desert for current and future generations — and for Sage-Grouse, pronghorn, pygmy rabbit, Lahontan cutthroat trout, and hundreds of other native flora and fauna that depend on this region.

Watch party location: Medford Congregational Church of Christ- Lidgate Hall, 1801 E. Jackson St., Medford
