In this course, you will learn about public,
private and non-profit approaches to conserving endangered species on private,
Tribal, State and other non-Federal lands. We will cover the role of non-Federal
lands in the conservation of endangered species and Endangered Species
Act policies and procedures that contribute to recovery of listed and candidate
species on these lands. We will review available tools, including safe
harbor and candidate conservation agreements, the habitat conservation
planning process, conservation easements, land exchanges, landowner incentives

discussions on the use of different approaches will be an integral part
of this course.
