Willamette Valley in Oregon. As recently as 2005, scientists believed that this butterfly had disappeared from Canada. Two isolated populations have since been found, on Denman Island and near Oyster River on Vancouver Island. The species is quite sedentary, often using one small patch of habitat for their entire lifecycle.

Techniques we use are adapted from a successful breeding and release program for the same species at the Oregon Zoo, and applied to suit the biology of our Canadian Taylor\u2019s checkerspot populations.

We can now produce over 1000 caterpillars a year, with improvements being made consistently. Through our captive breeding program, we continue to gain insight into the species\u2019 behaviour, needs and development. The Taylor\u2019s checkerspots are released as large caterpillars in early spring. In 2015, we began releasing caterpillars into restored habitats on Denman Island to supplement the existing populations.<\/p>\n<p>In the early spring of 2020, the first generation of caterpillars were released into restored habitat in Helliwell Provincial Park on Hornby Island, a project many years in the making. In this formerly occupied habitat, we are attempting to establish a third, resilient population of checkerspots in BC. This important habitat on Hornby Island has been restored in collaboration with our partners.<\/p>\n<p>We were thrilled to see that, come May 2020, there were adult Taylor\u2019s checkerspot butterflies flying in these restored meadows. Releases of caterpillars on Hornby Island will continue, and the population will be monitored by our team to ensure their success.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-lf2zofx4-bf299fbef25f8f9cb360e3f01a7a6edd'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-toggle-id-3' data-fake-id='#toggle-id-3' class='toggler  av-title-above av-inherit-border-color'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-3' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"Impact\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: Impact\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: Impact\">Impact<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-3' aria-labelledby='toggle-toggle-id-3' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-border-color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_1 et_pb_row_1-4_3-4\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_3_4 et_pb_column_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_tabs et_pb_tabs_0 et_slide_transition_to_1 et_slide_transition_to_2 et_slide_transition_to_3\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_all_tabs\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_tab et_pb_tab_3 clearfix et-pb-active-slide\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_tab_content\">\n<p>By breeding and then releasing caterpillars, we aim to establish new self-sustaining populations in the Taylor\u2019s checkerspot\u2019s former range. We are also working to locate additional remaining wild populations of the species. We are protecting the Taylor\u2019s checkerspot in BC, at the northern edge of the species\u2019 range. This action becomes only more important in the face of climate change, which could spell the end for more southerly populations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='staff-projects'  class='avia-section av-2uandd-b4931234d3dba010e9b0787ca3474066 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-19  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  blog-inner avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-7681'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-rfzq0x-e1e0ed24c26f56e75c65cd158bd78773'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Personnel du projet<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='flex_column av-pgkkap-c097bf4eb257289e5673ae4be6218dd8 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_full  author-section first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lf2zpa6l-adc1935c668c8b2ba80dbc8f9499d310\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lf2zpa6l-adc1935c668c8b2ba80dbc8f9499d310 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lf2zpa6l-adc1935c668c8b2ba80dbc8f9499d310 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lf2zpa6l-adc1935c668c8b2ba80dbc8f9499d310 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-22  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  author-pic'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-36292 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-36292 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Andrea-Gielens-square-1-180x180.jpg' alt='Andrea Gielens' title='Place Andrea-Gielens (1)'  height=\"180\" width=\"180\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lf2zq9un-a2733bf1f47d13108c9677b4d0ab2a1f'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Andrea Gielens<\/h3>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">Biologiste principal<\/h5>\n<p>Andrea g\u00e8re le programme de r\u00e9tablissement du papillon damier de Taylor en Colombie-Britannique.
