Discover Local Species
North Carolina is home to a wide range of animals because it has many different types of places where they can live. From the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean to the Appalachian Mountains, the state has places like saltwater marshes, freshwater swamps, thick woods, and high-up areas with spruce and fir trees. These different places are why there are so many kinds of animals here.
Two special animals from North Carolina that are in danger of disappearing are the Carolina northern flying squirrel and the red wolf. People are working hard to learn about these animals and to make sure they don’t go extinct. North Carolina also has a lot of birds, frogs, toads, salamanders, and fish that live in streams and lakes.
To keep these animals safe, it’s important to take care of the places they live. For example, making sure forests are healthy and rivers are clean helps all the creatures that depend on these environments.

Conservation Efforts Updates
Recent work in North Carolina has really helped nature. We’ve started special plans to save important natural areas and animals that are in danger of disappearing. The state’s workers and groups that care about the environment are focusing on places that need help the most, like swamps and forests with a type of tree called longleaf pine. They are home to lots of different animals that need these places to live.
Scientists are making sure we do the right things to keep nature diverse and strong. We’re keeping a close eye on animals that don’t have many left, such as the red wolf and the Carolina northern flying squirrel. We’re buying land to protect it, making sure people follow nature laws, and getting local communities to help out. This is important because it helps us keep North Carolina’s wild places safe, even when they’re facing problems like pollution or changes in the climate.
For example, by buying a piece of land where red wolves live, we make sure they have a safe place to hunt and live. And by teaching people why these wolves are important, we get more people to care about saving them. This way, we’re working hard to keep the wild parts of North Carolina beautiful and full of life for a long time.

Habitat Exploration Tips
Before heading out to explore wildlife habitats, it’s important to get ready properly and show respect for nature. This helps keep you safe and protects the plants and animals. Learn about the place you’re going to visit so you know what to expect and what to bring. Wear strong shoes and clothes that suit the weather. Don’t forget a map or a compass.
It’s also important to know how the animals behave so you don’t bother them. Watch animals from afar, and stay on the paths to avoid harming the environment. Take photos or write down what you see, but leave everything as you found it. This way, you can enjoy the outdoors without causing any harm.
For example, if you’re going to a forest, wear hiking boots and bring a rain jacket just in case. Use a GPS or a physical map to help you stay on track. If you see a deer, enjoy the sight but don’t get too close or try to feed it. Remember, taking care of nature while exploring means future visitors will get to enjoy it too.
