Special to the Rappahannock News
The single greatest threat to our native wildlife is habitat loss. While some native species can adapt more readily to changes in habitat, others depend on particular plants, geology, and climatic conditions to survive. With increasing development of land, habitat that is necessary to the very survival of some species is rapidly disappearing.
The good news is that a growing number of private property owners recognize the value of native habitat and are restoring and protecting it on their land. In Rappahannock County we’re fortunate to have a strong conservation ethic.
