Our Conservation Projects
Conserve Wildlife Foundation works to protect a wide variety of species that migrate through and breed in New Jersey.
 | Amphibian Conservation ProjectSince 2002 we have been working to protect early-spring breeding amphibians like the wood frog, spotted salamander, jefferson salamander, and spring peeper during their annual migration. We work to help to project these species at road crossings. |
 | Bald Eagle ProjectWe help manage the state's population of Bald eagles. In 2009, there were more than 65 pairs of nesting Bald eagles in New Jersey. |
 | Bat ProjectRead about our work to help protect New Jersey's bat population. |
 | Beach Nesting Bird ProjectConserve Wildlife Foundation of NJ tirelessly works to monitor and protect beach nesting birds in New Jersey. |
 | Calling Amphibian Monitoring Project (CAMP)The object of this program is to assess the distribution, abundance, and health of New Jersey's amphibians. We assist by recruiting volunteers to particpate in the statewide survey. |
 | Freshwater Invertebrates ProjectConserve Wildlife Foundation of NJ is working with the New Jersey Endangered and Nongame Species Program to survey for freshwater invertebrates across the state and evaluate their conservation status. |

 | Peregrine ProjectWe work closely with biologists with the Endangered and Nongame Species Program to help monitor the population in New Jersey. |
 | Roads and Wildlife Working GroupThis group has been established in order to proactively identify potential conflicts between roads and wildlife as well as stretches of road where wildlife will benefit from crossing structures to allow safe passage. |
 | Seal Research and ConservationConserve Wildlife Foundation staff have been working with the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey to develop a conservation plan for seals in New Jersey. |
 | Terrapin ProjectThe Great Bay Terrapin Conservation Project is intended to help reduce abnormally high mortality rates and educate the public about the threats to the terrapin population in New Jersey. |
Help Conserve Bats!
Do you know a place where bats roost in the summer - like an attic, barn, church, or bat house - then the Summer Bat Count wants you! Participants perform counts and report emergence count data to us. This data helps us monitor the population of bats in New Jersey.
