A Species Guide for the Berryessa Snow Mountain Region - Paperback

by Compiled Mary K. Hanson For Tuleyome (Author)

Tuleyome, a nonprofit conservation organization based in Woodland, California spearheaded the campaign to permanently protect the Berryessa Snow Mountain region which includes parts of Yolo, Lake, Napa, Mendocino and Solano Counties. Our efforts came to fruition when, on July 10, 2015, President Barack Obama signed the proclamation that designated the region as the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument. The monument is comprised of over 330,000 acres of federal public lands and includes the Cache Creek Wilderness, the Cedar Roughs Wilderness, and the Snow Mountain Wilderness. This species guide contains photographs and information on over 200 distinct species of plants and animals, but they still only comprise a tiny fraction of the flora and fauna found throughout the Berryessa Snow Mountain region. While the guide is not comprehensive, it provides an introduction to the diversity of life found in this rich area, including many common as well as threatened and endangered species.
