Forest Management for Conservation

We create, improve and consolidate forestlands, guiding management towards the conservation of the Iberian wolf´s habitat and its wild prey, through interventions that focus on creating or managing forestlands adapted to the ecological conditions of the region, increasing their availability, resilience and size.

In these forestlands, we aim to increase biodiversity in vegetation cover and forests, preserve and recover native forest stands and habitat mosaics, protect soils against erosion, maintain and create groves, preserve waterways and riparian vegetation, create refuge areas and reduce fire risk.
