The Endangered Species Coalition recently presented the GYC’s Wildlife Program Manager Brooke Shifrin with the Rising Conservation Leader Award, celebrating her work to conserve grizzly bears, gray wolves, and other wildlife species across the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
Madison Passages grew out of conversations among ranchers, residents, local businesses, and conservation partners who share these roads and care deeply about this place. It is led by the community, and its approach is grounded in local knowledge, priorities, and support. The group’s goal is to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions while maintaining the connectivity wildlife need to reach food, water, breeding areas, and winter habitat.
In just 45 days, Greater Yellowstone Coalition advocates sent 31,561 public comments from all 50 states urging the U.S. Department of Agriculture to keep the Roadless Area Conservation Rule.
