Volunteer: Endangered Species Day 2014 | Bay Area
Join the effort to protect precious park wildlife by helping to heal their critical and limited habitats by volunteering on the annual Endangered Species Day.
Get hands-on with restoration projects to benefit the park’s imperiled species. The Golden Gate National Parks are home to more federally protected species than any other unit of the National Park System in continental North America—the California red-legged frog, coho salmon, mission blue butterfly, Presidio clarkia, and many more.
