Roughly 265 acres of green rolling hills in the area are the newest piece of property being set aside as part of a new multi-million-dollar effort to protect the land and its wildlife.
"We're super excited about it because it's a large property that's right on the edge of the urban growth boundary," Schweigerdt said.
"A lot of animals are migrating up and down to adapt to the different food sources that are occurring at different elevations," Schweigerdt said.
Eastern Sacramento County is seeing rapid growth in areas that had previously been open space, with thousands of new homes being built near Folsom, Rancho Cordova and El Dorado Hills.
This preserve will help get closer to the statewide goal of protecting 30% of land from development by 2030.
The Sacramento Valley Conservancy is hoping to protect even more land using money from the $10 billion Proposition 4 climate bond that was passed by voters last year.
