Riparian Brush rabbit and San Joaquin Valley Ripairan woodrat

Archived

Fish and Wildlife Service

Description

The riparian brush rabbit (Sylvilagus bachmani riparius; �brush rabbit�), and the San Joaquin Valley [riparian] woodrat (Neotoma fuscipes riparia; �woodrat�), are two of the most critically endangered species in the Central Valley of California. Both species were federally listed as endangered on February 23, 2000 (USFWS 2000a). Decline of these two species has been the result of riparian habitat loss associated with agricultural and urban development in the San Joaquin Valley and construction and maintenance of dams and flood control levees. Only about 6% of the riparian forest community remains in the San Joaquin Valley (CALFED 1999).
