Welcome to LandScope Michigan
The LandScope America website is a work in progress. In addition to comprehensive nationwide information, like much of what you can already find via the map viewer, we will include extensive state-by-state information, found on state home pages like this one. Because Michigan is one of many states where we are still working to develop all of the needed maps, stories and other content, currently you’ll find only summary information here. For an example of completed state content, visit the home pages of our five pilot states: Colorado, Florida, Maine, Virginia and Washington.

Michigan Conservation Summary
Each year, millions of visitors come to the Great Lake State to enjoy its wide sandy beaches, swim in clean lakes, hunt deer and waterfowl on a cool crisp fall morning, fish for trout in a secluded stream, or hike through a vast wilderness area. Conservation organizations are working across the state to conserve and enhance Michigan's rich natural heritage for its wildlife and visitors alike.

Michigan Wildlife Action Plan
Michigan's Wildlife Action Plan focuses on the state's diverse landscape features, such as prairies, bogs, large rivers, coastal dunes and pine forests, as well as the conservation needs of more than 400 vulnerable wildlife species. By combining habitat- and wildlife-specific approaches, considering multiple scales, and building on the existing strategies and plans of more than 200 conservation partners, Michigan's Wildlife Action Plan will help to guide the conservation of the state's full range of wildlife diversity.
