We use maps in the Registry program to help us visualize our progress and our conservation gaps. Each color block represents registered property within that township. We can see that several townships contain more than one element (an element is a species or natural feature that we protect). However, we also notice the lack of registered sites in the Panhandle and southwestern Oklahoma. Maps like this can help us to target areas and elements that are underrepresented in our program.
Examples of plants, animals, and natural communities currently protected by landowners in the Registry program are:
- Bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)
- Texas horned lizards (Phrynosoma cornutum)
- Mexican free-tailed bat (Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana)
- Oklahoma beardtongue (Penstemon oklahomensis)
- Long-haired phlox (Phlox longipilosa)
- Tallgrass prairie
- Ouachita Mountain forest
- Cross Timbers forest
