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.
We’re celebrating the eastern loggerhead shrike all week long
From July 20 – July 26, it’s Shrike Week! The eastern loggerhead shrike is one of Canada’s only predatory songbirds, and yet this rare songbird doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Shrike Week is a fierce, feathery, and fun time to learn about all things shrike, be sure to follow along with us on social media as we share behind the scenes footage and fun facts on our socials.
But wait, there’s more… Anyone who signs up for our e-newsletter will receive an exclusive invite to WPC’s first ever AMA (Ask Me Anything) webinar coming this November, giving you the chance to ask our Shrike Recovery Team your burning questions about the “Butcher Bird”!
