The Forest Service has green-lit the destruction of one of the most important wildlife corridors on the continent – the Hells Canyon Area of Oregon.

86,500 acres in Oregon's Wallowas. 13,000 acres of commercial logging. Mature and old mixed-conifer stands above streams that hold ESA-listed Chinook and steelhead. Ground that has never seen a chainsaw.

The Nature Conservancy's continental connectivity modeling shows climate migration routes running right through this country. Wolves are breeding here again. Elk, bear, and salmon all move through.

A judge saved the biggest trees. Implementation starts this summer.
