California: Nature is Our Heritage - Chico, California

Did you know that Wildlife Tourism is one of the fastest growing segments of the travel market? A 2006 U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service study shows that California has the highest number of wildlife watchers in the country, with 6.2 million participants and over $4.6 billion dollars in expenditures on wildlife watching activities in California. Communities who have tapped into this market have found that wildlife tourism can preserve or improve quality of life and natural resources while providing jobs and increased local revenues, and enhancing community cohesion and pride.

Following the 6th Annual Cultural and Heritage Symposium, hosted in historic Chico, the Watchable Wildlife Project will host its “California: Nature is our Heritage” program.

The California Watchable Wildlife Project (CWWP) celebrates California’s wildlife and diverse habitats by acknowledging and elevating the value of wildlife viewing to benefit individuals, families, communities, and industries while fostering awareness and support for conservation and protection of wildlife and habitats. We encourage you to stay for the weekend and enjoy the 11th Annual Snow Goose Festival.
