ON THE GROUND.
IN THE FIGHT.
Protecting New Mexico’s wilderness, wildlife, and waters.
Our endeavor
New Mexico’s wilderness, wildlife and waters
are threatened like never before.
Climate change, short-sighted policy, and corporate interests put everything we love at risk.
New Mexico Wild is on the ground and in the fight. Nearly half the state is public land, yet only 6% is meaningfully protected. That’s why we’re driving smart policy, community advocacy, and hands-on stewardship to safeguard what makes this place extraordinary.
From hiking trails to the steps of the nation’s Capitol, we get our boots dirty to ensure New Mexico’s wild places stay protected for generations to come.

Gila Protections Move Closer to the Finish Line
The Gila River is New Mexico’s last free-flowing river, having survived decades of attempts to dam or divert it. Its headwaters rise in the Gila Wilderness—the world’s first designated Wilderness Area—which is why we’ve spent years working to permanently protect 446 miles of this river as Wild and Scenic. Today, we’re closer than ever.
