WHERE WE WORK

In 1991 Round River Conservation Studies began gathering ecological information and engaging local communities in conservation dialogue in several bioregions. These areas have included: the Blue Range of southeastern Arizona, the Great Bear and Muskwa-Kechika of British Columbia, the tropical forests of Belize, the Yaak Valley of northwestern Montana, the highlands of southern Ecuador, the Mackenzie Delta of the Northwest Territories, the shrub desert of central Namibia in southwestern Africa, and the canyon country of southern Utah.

Round River’s current efforts in North America are in the Taku River of northwestern British Columbia, the North Slope and Southern Lakes of the Yukon Territory, the Rocky Mountains of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, and the Sky Islands of Southern Arizona. In Africa, our work continues in the Okavango Delta of Botswana and expands to the Makgadikgadi-Nxai Pans. In South and Central America, our work is in the Aysén Region of Patagonia in Chile, the Mayan Mountains of Belize and the Pantanal of Brazil. In 2018 we began work in the Darhad Valley of Huvsgul Province, Mongolia.
