wildlife in Canada faces greater risk of extinction than reptile and amphibians. According to the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC), more than 40 amphibian and reptile species are currently threatened or endangered. More than a third of these species need some form of hands-on intervention to survive. Our national reptile and amphibian program develops and promotes best practices for four key conservation techniques: translocation, headstarting, conservation breeding and in-situ interventions. We will maximize the impact of groups across the continent that are working to protect these highly threatened species.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<section>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-41633pv-ff19815e577812da4eafdcc5747eb3e9 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p><section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfvplbt3-23112e21174d3e4bb91cb497f539bb4a'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>All eight of Ontario\u2019s native freshwater turtle species are listed as at-risk federally.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To address this crisis, in 2020 WPC led the formation of the Working Group for the Conservation of Ontario Turtles to bring together expertise in hands-on management to recover Ontario turtles. There are many organizations across the province collecting nests laid in dangerous locations, such as gravel roadsides, and artificially incubating the eggs to increase their survival to hatching stage. Once the eggs hatch, the hatchlings are released back to a safe location near where the female laid the eggs. The primary aim of the working group is to increase coordination and collaboration among Ontario\u2019s turtle conservation community to identify priority actions and increase the impact and knowledge gained from these existing efforts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfvplsc6-b037d62df7299648ad12f599c6ef0ee0\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvplsc6-b037d62df7299648ad12f599c6ef0ee0 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvplsc6-b037d62df7299648ad12f599c6ef0ee0 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfvplsc6-b037d62df7299648ad12f599c6ef0ee0 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_hr'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-37868 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37868 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/20180613_210634-e1585751688590-scaled.jpg' alt='' title='20180613_210634-e1585751688590'  height=\"1797\" width=\"2560\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-msey9rxj-3656b8806c76e36a1dff337f052c513c\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-msey9rxj-3656b8806c76e36a1dff337f052c513c{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-msey9rxj-3656b8806c76e36a1dff337f052c513c hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfvpm7bx-737bade28b72b70f769150255f088315'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Blanding\u2019s turtle laying a nest in a dangerous location on the gravel shoulder of a road.

We will be expanding these protocols to include headstarting \u2013 where hatchlings are further raised in conservation facilities to juvenile size, over at least one winter. The protocols will be informed by a facilitated participatory workshop planned for early 2022 with assistance from our Canadian Species Initiative team. This multi-stakeholder, multi-species, collaborative, and broad-scale approach will prioritize the ex situ conservation needs for all eight species of turtles in Ontario, while building the capacity of the turtle conservation community in Ontario, and helping to coordinate efforts to ensure greater efficiency and effectiveness of projects across the province.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-3iuaj4j-28fb0f3482cd4e232510d86f9802a82d av_one_half  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfvpooz8-210d61284720e309a49db2839358695b\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvpooz8-210d61284720e309a49db2839358695b img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvpooz8-210d61284720e309a49db2839358695b .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfvpooz8-210d61284720e309a49db2839358695b av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-15  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-37883 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37883 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/bhweb-1.jpg' alt='' title='bhweb'  height=\"1350\" width=\"1800\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-2wqijyr-aa8ea789e0d7ea2d70c3d514b45b789d av_one_half  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfvpp1xk-ae93f9426b72b8ada97de21ca85e95e7\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvpp1xk-ae93f9426b72b8ada97de21ca85e95e7 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfvpp1xk-ae93f9426b72b8ada97de21ca85e95e7 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfvpp1xk-ae93f9426b72b8ada97de21ca85e95e7 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-17  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-37884 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37884 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/turtle-3-web-1.jpg' alt='' title='turtle-3-web'  height=\"1350\" width=\"1800\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3q268oj-0b0efcd9d50377e47a31ac9217b40a91\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-3q268oj-0b0efcd9d50377e47a31ac9217b40a91{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-3q268oj-0b0efcd9d50377e47a31ac9217b40a91 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfvppnfw-dbfa89e501c8ee6d32fc352db2680550'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>A recently hatched Blanding\u2019s turtle, left, and right, a released Blanding\u2019s turtle.
