Wildlife Preservation Canada
Canada’s last defence
for endangered
species.
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.
Until April 10, your donation will give twice as much back to nature
Spring is here! WPC species are returning from their migrations, and waking up from brumation, which means it’s time for us to get back in the field! This is your last chance to kickstart our field season, giving our biologists more access to the resources they need to release your favourite WPC species back into the wild, fueling the recovery these at-risk animals need.
For a limited time, an anonymous donor will be matching donations until we reach $10,000. Your gift goes directly back to nature, through every animal released, and every species saved.
