I don’t obsess over protein. I eat legumes every day and a reasonable variety of other plant foods, all of which contain protein. I know I’ll get as much as I need — with fiber (which never comes with animal foods) and low amounts of saturated fat.

When disaster strikes, we act. Learn how we're helping overwhelmed shelters in LA. When disaster strikes, we act. Learn how we're helping overwhelmed shelters in LA. Dear Judith, The devastating wildfires in Los Angeles have left local animal shelters overwhelmed, and Marin Humane is answering the call for help. Here's how we’re making a difference and how you can join us: Creating Space for Evacuees’ Pets: We’ve already welcomed 46 animals from L.A. shelters — two dogs and 44 small animals like guinea pigs, rabbits, and hamsters. We’re fortunate to have the right kind of housing and the expertise to care for these special critters! These cuties were available for adoption before the fires, and by bringing them here, we’re freeing up critical space for pets displaced by evacuations. Sending Help On-Site: A dedicated team headed to Pasadena Humane this morning to provide relief for exhausted shelter staff and assist with animal care. We’ll also be sending specialized Animal Services Officers trained in pet rescue and reunification. How You Can Help! Foster: Provide a calm, loving home for animals in need — especially big dogs, shy cats, and rabbits. Sign up at marinhumane.org/foster. Adopt: Now is the perfect time to open your heart to a new furry friend. Each adoption here creates space for more animals. View adoptable pets at marinhumane.org/adopt. Donate: Support established L.A. shelters directly — but beware of scams by only giving directly through shelters’ websites. You can also support our Emergency Response Fund, which helps build our capacity to address disasters when they arise. We’re on daily calls with a statewide coalition of animal shelters, getting the latest updates and seeing where we can help in this still unfolding disaster. L.A. faces a very long road to recovery, and we’ll be there to help as much as we can. Thank you for your support — it ensures we can respond quickly to help animals and the people who love them. With gratitude, Your friends at Marin Humane PS: Check out this video from ABC7 news which aired earlier today about our disaster response efforts.

View this email in your browser Image credit: Sarah Killingsworth. SETTLEMENT REACHED IN LONG-STANDING DISPUTE OVER RANCHING AT POINT REYES NATIONAL SEASHORE RANCHING OPERATIONS TO TRANSITION OUT OF POINT REYES BY 2026, CLEARING THE WAY FOR CONSERVATION EFFORTS An agreement signed this week by the National Park Service (NPS), environmental groups, and 18 families who have long run cattle and dairy operations at Point Reyes National Seashore ends a decade-long dispute over ranching within the national park. Located on the Pacific Coast of Marin County, about an hour’s drive from San Francisco, Point Reyes National Seashore is part of a United Nations-designated International Biosphere Reserve for its diverse plants and wildlife. More than 100 plant and animal species at the Seashore are listed as rare, threatened, or endangered. Point Reyes National Seashore is one of only a few national parks that allow commercial cattle ranching, a practice that pre-dated the Seashore’s establishment in 1962. In 2016, a lawsuit initiated by the Resource Renewal Institute (RRI), the Center for Biological Diversity and the Western Watershed Project challenged the National Park Service’s decision to issue 20-year leases to commercial beef and dairy ranches at the Seashore without any environmental analysis or public input, required under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Settlement of RRI’s 2016 lawsuit led the NPS to update it’s 40-year-old management plan in 2021, which proposed expanded ranching, livestock diversification, and mobile slaughterhouses in the national park. RRI and it’s co-plaintiffs sued again, preventing implementation of the new plan, which conflicted with the park’s enabling legislation and the NPS’s 1916 founding mandate, “to conserve the scenery, wildlife, and natural and historic objects in national parks, monuments, and reservations…for the enjoyment in a way that leaves them unimpaired for future generations.” Two groups of beef and dairy ranchers, including the Point Reyes Ranchers’ Association, comprised of longtime leaseholders in the national seashore and the adjacent Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), intervened in the lawsuit in 2022. All parties to the lawsuit agreed to mediation that same year. The Nature Conservancy joined the mediation in 2023 to help resolve the longstanding conflict. Negotiations continued until this week when a voluntary agreement was reached to wind down ranching and remove nearly 5,000 cattle grazing in the Seashore. "Over the past two years, environmentalists, ranchers, and park managers worked shoulder to shoulder to forge an agreement that honors both our human connections and our conservation commitments to this remarkable landscape. This historic settlement creates a framework to protect the Seashore's irreplaceable natural resources for generations to come," said Chance Cutrano, Director of Programs at the Resource Renewal Institute. AS PART OF THE SETTLEMENT: Eleven lessees who currently operate 12 beef and dairy ranches within the Point Reyes National Seashore will receive compensation payments from The Nature Conservancy as part of their voluntary agreement to end their operations and transition off the Seashore. Nine ranches will continue at PRNS and Golden Gate National Recreation Area: Seven historic ranches in the north district of GGNRA will receive new 20-year leases to support viable agricultural operations with continued protection of park natural and cultural resources, and the NPS will negotiate long-term leases for two ranching operations within the Point Reyes National Seashore. The departing lessees will have approximately 15 months from the signing of the agreement to complete the wind-down of their operations on the Seashore and move off the

In case you’re down there to go, or want to tell people about them. I just learned of The Plot which has two locations. One in Oceanside which is north San Diego and one in OC. It’s got a strong mission and looks good. I posted about Civico a few years ago. Glad it’s still open. Though it’s not a fully vegan place, it’s in San Diego’s Little Italy and has a separate full vegan menu (pretty unheard of at Italian places, especially there), since one of the 2 Italian brother owners is an AR vegan. I met the vegan owner-chef. He creates the recipes. He also rescues pit bulls. https://theplotrestaurant.com/menus-oceanside https://www.civico1845.com

Historic Agreement on Cattle Ranching, Wildlife Management at Point Reyes National Seashore Ends Decades of Conflict POINT REYES NATIONAL SEASHORE, Calif.— Today the National Park Service, Resource Renewal Institute, Center for Biological Diversity, Western Watersheds Project, Point Reyes Seashore Ranching Association, and other Point Reyes National Seashore ranchers reached a landmark agreement to settle a decades-long land-use conflict over the future of dairying, cattle ranching, and wildlife management at Point Reyes National Seashore. The agreement allows some beef ranching to continue while prioritizing ecological protection, wildlife conservation and continued recreational access. The settlement is based on the voluntary decisions of 11 multigenerational family lessees to retire their 12 ranching operations on the national seashore in exchange for compensation from The Nature Conservancy. In response to these decisions, the National Park Service determined it was appropriate to issue a Revised Record of Decision on its general management plan amendment which affects 28,000 acres of former and current ranch and dairy lands in Point Reyes and the north district of Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Under the revised management plan, the Park Service will rezone approximately 16,000 acres of former agricultural lands into a Scenic Landscape zone, which prioritizes resource conservation activities. Under the revised plan, tule elk will be allowed to generally roam freely within the national seashore and expand their numbers without a population cap. As part of this settlement: 11 lessees who currently operate 12 organic dairies or cattle ranches within the Point Reyes National Seashore will receive compensation payments as part of their voluntary agreement to end their operations and transition off the Seashore. Nine ranches will continue at PRNS and Golden Gate National Recreation Area: Seven historic ranches in the north district of the recreation area will receive new 20-year leases to support viable agricultural operations with continued protection of park natural and cultural resources, and the NPS will negotiate long-term leases for two ranching operations within the Point Reyes National Seashore. The departing lessees will have approximately 15 months from the signing of the agreement to complete the wind-down of their operations on the Seashore and move off the land. The Nature Conservancy will collaborate with the National Park Service through an agreement to mutually support and share resources to promote conservation activities on the vacated lease areas. Both entities are interested in using the best available science, traditional ecological knowledge through consultation with the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and an array of management tools to pursue park natural and cultural resource objectives. A tenant and employee transition support plan is well into development and financial resources have been secured to proactively support finding employment and housing alternatives for the employees and tenants of the departing ranchers residing at Point Reyes. “This settlement is a major win for tule elk and Point Reyes’ environment, wildlife and native plants,” said Jeff Miller, a senior conservation advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity. “I’m proud of what

Exploring how our food system impacts wildlife, communities and the environment. Issue 43 | December 2024 Great news to kick off the New Year: Thanks to many years of hard work by the Center and allies, in December the National Park Service announced that the elk-killing cattle fence at the Point Reyes National Seashore will be taken down. Removing the fence will allow the unique tule elk in the park to roam free and thrive. It’s the latest development in a long saga to protect the biodiversity and wildlife of these public lands. To dive deeper, this month I spoke to my Center colleague Jeff Miller, who has fought for the elk for years. Jeff is the author of a new book, Bay Area Wildlife: An Irreverent Guide (grab a copy for yourself). Jennifer Molidor: What was the impact of the fence on the tule elk, and what led to its removal? Jeff Miller: The Tomales Point elk fence — or the Ungulate Berlin Wall, as I like to call it — trapped elk herds on a peninsula that lacked adequate water and forage during drought years, causing massive die-offs of elk. Tomales Point elk were managed like zoo animals rather than the iconic, endemic totems of Point Reyes that they are. Public outrage and comments, protests, and lawsuits finally forced the Park Service to agree to remove the elk-killing fence and allow elk to be elk and roam naturally. The Park Service finalized a Tomales Point plan that allowed fence removal in November and in December removed a few hundred yards of fencing to allow elk to move freely, making the remainder of the fence irrelevant. Jennifer M.: Why is Point Reyes — or West Marin generally — such an important place for imperiled and endemic wildlife? Jeff M.: Point Reyes features prominently in my Bay Area wildlife guide because it’s such a biodiversity wonderland. There were heroic battles in the 1960s and 1970s that saved much of West Marin from sprawl development. In addition to the tule elk, Point Reyes has quite a few other wildlife comeback stories. The blubbery behemoths known as northern elephant seals were nearly hunted to extinction in the 1800s and were absent from our coast for 150 years — now there are more than 3,000 elephant seals breeding on Point Reyes beaches. Peregrine falcons, the raptors I call “screaming death parrots,” almost went extinct because of DDT. A heroic recovery and reintroduction effort helped peregrines rebound from only two pairs in all of California to around 50 breeding pairs in the Bay Area alone today, with quite a few peregrine territories in Point Reyes. Point Reyes is one of the best places to encounter river otters, dubbed “aquatic death weasels” for their efficient takedowns of large brown pelicans. And West Marin creeks host the last remaining viable Bay Area spawning runs of coho salmon, whose epic migrations and dramatic spawning behaviors inspire us to restore our watersheds. Wandering around Point Reyes, you can encounter badgers, bobcats, coyotes, foxes, long-tailed weasels, leopard sharks and bat rays, burrowing owls, and nearly five hundred other species of birds. It’s a truly magical place. Jennifer M.: What happens next? Jeff M.: The Cattlemen’s Association sued to try to stop the fence removal, and further work is on hold until a court hearing. We’re intervening, and rest assured: That fence will not go back up — the Tomales Point elk have already won their freedom. We also have active litigation over the park management of the 20-year commercial grazing leases (that were supposed to expire in the 1980s and 1990s) and treatment of the free-ranging elk herds. We’ve been in settlement negotiations with the Park Service and ranchers for two and a half years, and a conservation organization is attempting to buy out and retire the ranches. Jennifer M.: Your guide has been described as funny, punchy insights into charismatic animals like chocolate tarantulas and nudibranchs (whom you describe as “disco slugs dressed for a P-Funk concert”). What do you hope people enjoy about the book? Jeff M.: It’s got “irreverent” in the title, so that’s a hint about the tone, bu
