They have supported us in developing guidebooks and learning how to build better roads in and around boreal wetlands.

Why are boreal wetlands so important to conserve? Not only does conservation of wetlands help mitigate climate change, the Canadian boreal provides food and shelter for millions of waterfowl each summer. Forty per cent of North America’s waterfowl breed in the boreal forest. It is critical habitat for Canada’s most iconic species such as caribou, moose, wolf, cougar, lynx and grizzly bear.
