Wildlife Conservation Advice


Red squirrelThe Yorkshire Dales National Park is internationally important for its rich and diverse wildlife heritage.

The Wildlife Conservation Team works to conserve the range of habitats and species found in the Dales and to halt any decline in biodiversity value.

The team provides a comprehensive advisory service:

  • Advice to farmers and landowners on wildlife conservation and sustainable land management
  • Advice on dealing with wildlife conservation in the planning process
  • Advice on specific habitat and species management
  • Advice on combining access and recreation with wildlife conservation
  • Advice and support to individuals and societies

The team works closely with the regional office of Natural England (opens in new window). This is the government agency which was established to champion the conservation of wildlife and geology in England.
