><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Since 1988, the Canada&#8217;s New Noah program has provided conservation biologists in Canada the opportunity of a lifetime. Each year, WPC selects a dedicated biologist from applicants across Canada to undertake a 3-month course at the Durrell Conservation Academy in the U.K. followed by a 6-month internship on the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. This is an opportunity unlike any other for young Canadians to learn firsthand how the world\u2019s most successful conservation recovery programs are managed and to bring this knowledge and experience back to improve Canada\u2019s conservation capacity.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time ever, \u00a0WPC is offering this placement to two biologists. Our 2026 New Noahs are Jenna Kissel &#8211; WPC\u2019s 35<sup>\u00e8me <\/sup>Canada\u2019s New Noah, and Daryn Farrant &#8211; WPC\u2019s 36<sup>\u00e8me <\/sup>No\u00e9 du Canada de la CFC.

When you\u2019re four and you tell your parents you want to work with animals what is the obvious answer? Veterinarian. So, for a long time, that\u2019s what I thought I\u2019d be, though I knew somehow it had to involve saving wild animals. It wasn\u2019t until I got to university that a world of possibilities opened up, and I realized there were many more options to work with wildlife than being a veterinarian. I got my degree in Wildlife Biology and Conservation from the University of Guelph and have been working in wildlife conservation ever since. Having spent my childhood encouraged by my parents to follow my love for animals and inspired by Steve Irwin, it makes sense that this is where my career has led me.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone who knows me now can describe me in three short words: She loves birds. While I\u2019ve always loved all animals, my obsession with birds sparked sometime during my undergrad, though I can\u2019t say exactly when. I zeroed in on birds of prey when I got a position as a seasonal keeper at African Lion Safari, and I will always be grateful that this job allowed me to get my foot in the door to the world of zookeeping and avian conservation. I spent my summer learning about raptor husbandry, handling ambassador birds, and educating the public on the wonders of raptors. In a plot twist I didn\u2019t see coming, I fell in love with a particularly unloved group of birds \u2013 vultures. I\u2019m a sucker for the underdog and wanted the world to know how amazing and important vultures are. This led to me hosting the daily vulture feeding demonstration despite my paralyzing fear of public speaking. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-4njeqjo-20d00c69b68ea744d755fb6ab0cda016 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mkn2aaxc-d1bbf88765232a3479b99969da8be127\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mkn2aaxc-d1bbf88765232a3479b99969da8be127 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mkn2aaxc-d1bbf88765232a3479b99969da8be127 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mkn2aaxc-d1bbf88765232a3479b99969da8be127 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-14  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   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-51688 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-51688 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_ALSVultures.jpg' alt='' title='JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_ALSVultures'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-fuksw4-698170a7212dbb017cd6233c12bfc5d1\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-fuksw4-698170a7212dbb017cd6233c12bfc5d1{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-fuksw4-698170a7212dbb017cd6233c12bfc5d1 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-15  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-mkn2b0ms-ff84f94879ac1b5b4cec20acb5762cf6'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jenna with two black vultures during a bird show at African Lion Safari.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-3zjn23o-85d71425f4817ca8d540ea0bb7140ac1 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mkn2biue-864084bc2252a5fdeb9818d250383ece'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After leaving African Lion Safari I spent the next couple of years travelling around doing contract work for different conservation organizations. I completed a nearly year-long internship with the Northern Spotted Owl Breeding Program (NSOBP), lived in St. Louis for a few months while interning at the World Bird Sanctuary, and then spent a summer as a zookeeper at Toronto Zoo before returning to British Columbia to work as a technician with the NSOBP.<\/p>\n<p>My time at the World Bird Sanctuary was especially formative. Not only did I get to work with incredible birds, but I also worked with incredible people. I arrived just before New Year\u2019s Eve in 2018 and settled into the rustic, on-site housing with my fellow interns. I spent the next four months fully immersed in everything the sanctuary had to offer, from animal welfare to behavioural training to rehabilitation, working with dozens of species including hawks, eagles, owls, vultures, falcons, parrots, and corvids. Part of what made my experience at World Bird Sanctuary so meaningful was the staff who shared and encouraged my passion for all things avian. It was a privilege to learn all that I could during my internship, and to do so in the company of people who made the work fun.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-3hd7dyc-fc4d3cee2b6a6dcfb039906bf1292097 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-19  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mkn2bx70-d89ed748736a0d1f6dd94b5f0cc94361\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mkn2bx70-d89ed748736a0d1f6dd94b5f0cc94361 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mkn2bx70-d89ed748736a0d1f6dd94b5f0cc94361 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mkn2bx70-d89ed748736a0d1f6dd94b5f0cc94361 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-20  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   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-51689 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-51689 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_HoldingEagle.jpg' alt='' title='JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_HoldingEagle'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3612qro-94e4eceefaf90b2c2ce1bb8d6ceead19\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-3612qro-94e4eceefaf90b2c2ce1bb8d6ceead19{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-3612qro-94e4eceefaf90b2c2ce1bb8d6ceead19 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-21  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-mkn2cbqn-544195537524fa073a7ed4e00d64b715'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jenna holding Clark, a bald eagle, at the World Bird Sanctuary.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-2goyo04-3eed01d77d1de07b1c8420c6390960ed av_one_full  avia-builder-el-23  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mkn2ctsl-a8c7a07d5ab161baa119ba6038be2349'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I moved to British Columbia in late 2019 to return to the NSOBP, where I embraced my passion for avian conservation breeding. After my third cross-country road trip in as many years, I was ready to put down roots and dedicate myself to one project. At the NSOBP I got to be a part of the only program in the world dedicated to the conservation of spotted owls through conservation breeding and release (side note: did you know northern spotted owls are the most endangered owl species in Canada?) I really got to sharpen my skills in avian propagation, learning the ins and outs of artificial incubation and chick hand-raising, along with the day-to-day tasks of running a conservation breeding program.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t talk about my time at the NSOBP without mentioning Small Eyes, the NSOBP\u2019s ambassador owl and light of my life. I spent a lot of time training her for her role as educational ambassador, and we attended many outreach events together. A big part of conservation success is spreading awareness, and I loved getting to share Small Eyes\u2019 message with people and creating a connection to her and the conservation efforts she represents.<\/p>\n<p>I grew and learned so much during my time with the NSOBP, it was a dream come true to work with such an endangered species and unique program. I gained invaluable knowledge that will surely contribute to my career going forward, and while the spotted owls will always have a special place in my heart, after six wonderful years, it was time to move on.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-1w4bfgk-f31da177a5b0b4035348875c08d61771 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1gntkbo-4b5ac4ad2a2f5a13721f19fe9d108bc5\">\n.avia-image-container.av-1gntkbo-4b5ac4ad2a2f5a13721f19fe9d108bc5 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-1gntkbo-4b5ac4ad2a2f5a13721f19fe9d108bc5 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-1gntkbo-4b5ac4ad2a2f5a13721f19fe9d108bc5 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-26  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   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-51691 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-51691 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_Holdingbabybird_Owl.jpg' alt='' title='JennaKissel_CNN_IntroBlog_Holdingbabybird_Owl'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-18nawkk-729c888fd0719b8ddd7930f49cba6583\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-18nawkk-729c888fd0719b8ddd7930f49cba6583{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-18nawkk-729c888fd0719b8ddd7930f49cba6583 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-27  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-s0ru4k-be26e1c296124a35cc5402201cd34bb7'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><div><em>(Left) Jenna holding a spotted owl chick.

Projects team and have spent the last year working with non-avian species for the first time. It\u2019s been quite a change of pace working with herptiles and invertebrates, but part of what I love most about this field is getting to work with different programs and learn about new species. This desire for knowledge and new experiences is what drew me to the New Noah Program, and it\u2019s an honour to have been chosen as the 35<sup>\u00e8me<\/sup> Canada\u2019s New Noah. While I have a solid foundation in husbandry and conservation breeding, I\u2019m looking forward to learning more about the project management and analytical sides of endangered species recovery from the experts at Durrell and can\u2019t wait to experience first-hand the work that has led to the recovery of species like the Mauritius kestrel and pink pigeon.<\/p>\n<p>From northern spotted owls to Oregon spotted frogs, I am honoured to have contributed to the recovery of highly endangered species in Canada. The projects I have gotten to be a part of and the people I have met are truly inspiring, I can\u2019t believe I\u2019m lucky enough to get to do this for my career. Though I have spent years in wildlife conservation, this story is just the beginning, and I can\u2019t wait for the journey the New Noah Program will take me on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Why else are we
