Did you know that forests absorb and store carbon better than any other ecosystem? They can store carbon in soils, organic matter, and living and dead trees. Older trees generally absorb more carbon each year than their younger counterparts, making old forests one of our most valuable climate solutions. And the vast majority of our older forests are on federally managed lands – especially our #NationalForests. That is why we are asking the U.S. Forest Service to stop logging old-growth forests and protect mature trees (aka future old-growth) too! Take action: https://lnkd.in/eTy2k5x3

Did you hear the good news? Colorado wildlife managers have confirmed that a pair of Colorado’s newly reintroduced wolves have had a pup! The new wolf family has been named the Copper Creek Pack. Although only one pup was verified, Colorado Parks and Wildlife says others may be present; a typical litter consists of four to six pups. “It’s so exciting to be witnessing the early days of wolves’ return to Colorado,” said our Southern Rockies Director Alli Henderson. “With wolf families gone from Colorado for nearly a century, this pup’s arrival is a huge conservation milestone. Wolves belong here, and I’m so glad they’re back.” Images of the pup aren’t available to the public, but here’s footage of the thrilling Colorado wolf reintroduction from December 2023. 📹 by Colorado Parks & Wildlife
