Mission
Statement
The Western Wildlife Corridor, Inc. (WWC)
has been formed to protect, preserve and secure from harm
the greenway corridor that runs along
and in the vicinity of the Ohio River from Mill Creek (near
downtown  Cincinnati,
OH) to the Oxbow along the Great Miami River bordering Indiana
(click the Map link!). This corridor is a natural habitat
for a wide variety of species of wildlife and plants and
because of the soil structure, is extremely susceptible
to slippage. These wooded natural areas are vital in providing
for the emotional needs of people, cleansing the air, helping
regulate temperatures and providing a natural buffer zone.
This effort will be carried out by:
Educating the public concerning this increasingly rare
natural resource and its need for protection;
Researching the natural resources of the Corridor;
Developing a coalition of municipalities and environmental
organizations, businesses and individuals working together
to preserve the land;
Protecting the land through attaining conservation easements,
donations or purchasing it;
Working for legislation that will protect this area;
Developing a land management plan for the Corridor.
