The Western Wildlife Corridor Story
Western Wildlife Corridor is a nonprofit nature conservancy land trust formed in 1992. Our mission is to protect natural habitat along the Ohio River Valley from the Mill Creek to the Great Miami River. We now own and manage 16 nature preserves totaling nearly 400 acres. We are headquartered at the Kirby Nature Center in Addyston Ohio.
The heart of Western Wildlife Corridor is our talented and generous base of volunteers and donors. It’s because of all of our supporters that we’re able to accomplish so much! We are proud to be responsible stewards of not only the land we protect, but the generous contributions of our volunteers, members, and donors. There are many ways you can get involved! Visit a preserve, enjoy a hike or a seminar, or get involved with habitat restoration.
