On Thursday, November 21, 2024, officials from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Southwest Region, Pima County, Santa Cruz County, and the City of Tucson gathered to sign a memorandum of understanding to establish the Santa Cruz River Wildlife Partnership (SCRWP).
The agreement enables the four governmental entities to work more formally toward common objectives such as environmental education, outreach and programs while protecting a vital wildlife corridor that runs through both counties. It’s the first such national wildlife partnership the national agency has established in the state of Arizona.
