SAVING OUR ENDANGERED AQUATIC SPECIES.
In 2024, an Aquatic Conservation Laboratory opened at Yates Mill County Park. We will look at the significant contributions that NC State University and the NC Dept of Transportation made to this project, without which this facility may not have been possible.
WHAT’S BEHIND THEIR SPARKLING FLIGHTS?

WAKE COUNTY OPEN SPACE AND GREENWAYS
Open space is natural land that has not been converted to residential or commercial development. It includes forests, greenways, parks, meadows, wetlands, floodplains and farms. Setting land aside for open space is important as growth and development continues throughout Wake County.

THE UMSTEAD RESEARCH STATION
One of 18 NCSU Research Stations, the Umstead Station was established in the 1940s, and was originally part of the John Umstead Hospital. A special report on this research station was prepared based on notes from staff at that facility.
SAVING OUR RED WOLVES
Red wolves once existed throughout the U.S. but were nearly driven to extinction by the mid-1900s. After a small captive population was established in the late 1970s, the red wolf was declared extinct in the wild in 1980. See what one NC nonprofit is doing to help the survival of the Red Wolf.
