The Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is a wildlife trust that covers the Yorkshire and the Humber region of England. When it was founded, it covered the traditional county of Yorkshire, England, but under the 1974 county boundary changes, some of the trust's boundaries were amended to reflect those changes. The Trust is part of the UK-wide partnership of 46 Wildlife Trusts. It was formed in 1946, as the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Trust, essentially to preserve its first nature reserve Askham Bog on the outskirts of York. It now manages more than ninety reserves across the county, including some of the best wildlife sites in the UK. These nature reserves cover the diversity of Yorkshire's landscape, from woodland to grassland, wetland and moorland, fen and bog, and river and coast. One of the flagship reserves is Potteric Carr, a mixed wetland habitat to the south of Doncaster.
