Fighting Extinction in Nevada
Nevada, home to hundreds of imperiled plants and animals that live nowhere else on Earth, is on the frontlines of the extinction crisis.
Watch this Saving Life on Earth webinar to learn how saving a tiny fish or narrowly endemic wildflower can help save the world. This webinar features our Nevada State Director Patrick Donnelly.
From the Mount Charleston blue butterfly and Dixie Valley toad to the Devils Hole pupfish and Tiehm’s buckwheat, we’re racing to save rare species across Nevada using our most powerful conservation law: the Endangered Species Act. In this webinar you’ll learn how the Center takes action when species are threatened by a ski-resort expansion, energy production or pervasive groundwater overuse. You’ll also learn how you can support the Center’s work to save the rare flora and fauna of Nevada and the ecosystems they call home.

About us:
The Center for Biological Diversity is a 501c3 nonprofit headquartered in Tucson, Arizona. At the Center, we believe that the welfare of human beings is deeply linked to nature — to the existence in our world of a vast diversity of wild animals and plants. Because diversity has intrinsic value, and because its loss impoverishes society, we work to secure a future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of extinction. We do so through science, law and creative media, with a focus on protecting the lands, waters and climate that species need to survive.
We want those who come after us to inherit a world where the wild is still alive.
