Oregon Sensitive Species List and Associated Frequently Asked Questions
Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. 2019. Oregon Sensitive Species List and Associated Frequently Asked Questions
To provide a positive, proactive approach to species conservation, a “sensitive” species classification was created under Oregon’s Sensitive Species Rule (OAR 635-100-0040). The Sensitive Species List focuses fish and wildlife conservation, management, and research and monitoring activities on species that need conservation attention. Although the intent of the Sensitive Species List is to prevent species from declining to the point of qualifying as threatened or endangered, this list is not used as a “candidate” list for species to be considered for listing on Oregon’s State List of Threatened and Endangered Species (OAR 635-100-0125).
