| ORNHIC worked with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) to develop the Oregon Conservation Strategy, completed in September 2006. This work is part of a national effort coordinated by the International Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (IAFWA). Links to the national and state summary pages are included below.

In Oregon, ODFW had ORNHIC and the Institute for Natural Resources provided key information used to develop this strategy. The initial tasks included the development of:
updated distributions of all native wildlife species in Oregon
an update to the ODFW Sensitive Species List
an update of lands currently designated to conserve fish, wildlife and habitats
updated existing and historic vegetation coverages to map wildlife habitats
new maps for on-line distribution showing the "potentially occupied habitat" of state and federally listed plants and animals
