For dozens of Canadian species at risk, habitat protection alone is not enough. Wildlife Preservation Canada’s mission is to save animal species at risk from extinction in Canada by providing direct, hands-on care.
We are the only organization in Canada to provide this critical need for multiple species in multiple recovery efforts across the country. We specialize in science-based techniques such as conservation breeding and release, reintroduction and translocation. Our Action Plan is based on the urgency of the need and is updated annually.
This year, we decided to host a staff photo contest to showcase some of our biologists most amazing shots, and now we need your help to pick the winner. Out of 100 incredible submissions, we’ve managed to narrow it down to ten photos (it wasn’t easy).
Now it’s up to you… who will take the crown?
