About this listen
You may have seen the exciting news over the last month or so — Virginia’s final state budget includes $450,000 in funding for wildlife crossings! This is a major step forward in protecting both wildlife and people on our roads. Thanks to the leadership of Senator David Marsden and the tireless advocacy of many partners and supporters, this funding is now secured. We’re incredibly grateful to Senator Marsden for championing this cause, and to all of you who spoke up, wrote letters, and helped build the support that made this possible.
Dr. Jessica Roberts, Habitat Connectivity Program Director, and Misty Boos, US Conservation Policy Manager at the Wildlands Network, join the podcast to discuss what this means, why it's important, and what other states have done to foster habitat connectivity.
