Spectacular Wildlife
How Idaho Conservation League protects Idaho wildlife like bighorn sheep, wolves and sage-grouse.
Idaho is a great place to watch wildlife. Idaho is home to over 1,000 species of wildlife, from grizzly bears to golden eagles, including almost every species that was here when Lewis and Clark passed through. Some wildlife, like wolverines, roam over large areas, while others, like the northern Idaho ground squirrels, live in only a few locations.

The Idaho Conservation League is protecting and restoring the places that our wildlife need to survive so our children and grandchildren can enjoy our wildlife heritage.
- Wolves. We are working with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game to implement a science-based wolf management plan.
- Bighorn sheep. We are encouraging the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management to take action to recover Idaho's declining bighorn sheep population.
- Sage-grouse. We are working with ranchers, sportsmen and bird watchers on both protecting and restoring habitat for sage-grouse and other species.
