Good article! I logged a sighting of a Palos Verdes Blue last year. Looks like they are making a local comeback thanks to a lot of hard conservation work in Palos Verdes.
Yes! Much work and volunteer-hours
I would have liked to help in person if I lived closer to Palos Verdes. I sent the conservancy there a donation earlier to help them use sheep to graze the invasive plants around the preserve.
I never know how to view using sheep (or cattle) to eat invasive plants. They also eat native plants too. Chew it up and poop seeds in their manure and the whole process starts again.
Actually it sounds like they used goats. Here's the article. Sounds like they've done their homework and didn't just let the goats loose. lol
