Wildlife Adaptation Menu
The Wildlife Adaptation Menu is designed to be used as a stand-alone resource, and it can also be used to supplement structured adaptation planning with the Adaptation Workbook process (published in Forest Adaptation Resources: Climate Change Tools and Approaches for Land Managers).
The 13 strategies, 80 approaches, and 100+ tactics were developed through an assessment of existing adaptation tools, focus group discussions, and workshops with natural resource professionals. These strategies and approaches are designed to serve as stepping stones to allow natural resource managers and planners to translate broad concepts into targeted and specific actions (tactics) for putting climate change adaptation into practice to achieve a specific management objective in a specific location.
This presentation by authors of the report will describe the development of the Wildlife Adaptation Menu and highlight real-world examples in which managers have used the menu to integrate climate adaptation considerations into wildlife management and conservation projects.
