Last Hope Campaign

All eight native freshwater turtle species have populations that are at risk. Two native species have been extirpated in Canada: the Western Pond Turtle (Actinemys marmorata), historically found in southern British Columbia, and the Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina) (COSEWIC 2023).

All Canadian freshwater turtles require freshwater aquatic areas, and most species also use adjacent land. They generally prefer slow-moving water bodies with soft bottoms, basking areas, and aquatic vegetation.

We’re excited to announce that freshwater turtles are the next species featured in our Last Hope Campaign! 🐢 Photo by Mark Bernards (@markbernards3)⁠. #LastHopeCampaign #Biodiversity #EndangeredSpecies #ConservationInAction #Wildlife #FreshwaterTurtles #TurtleConservation #ProtectTurtles #CanadianWildlife #WetlandConservation #CanadaConservation

Education and awareness are vital for caribou conservation. By learning about the challenges they face, including habitat loss from resource extraction, we can advocate for stronger protections from provincial and federal authorities. #ShareCCPC #LastHopeCampaign #Biodiversity #EndangeredSpecies #ConservationInAction #Wildlife #Canada #Conservation #SaveCanadianWildlife #ConserveCanada #WildlifeInFocus #ProtectOurWild #ConservationPhotography

Protecting caribou means protecting their habitats and reducing human impacts. Sustainable practices, like supporting low-impact land use and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, are essential.

The most important action to support caribou is protecting and restoring their habitats. Individuals can make a difference by choosing paper and wood products that don’t contribute to unsustainable harvesting in the boreal forest.

Recovery of caribou isn’t just about numbers. It’s about protecting the ecosystems they depend on and respecting the deep cultural connections Indigenous communities have with these animals.

Habitat restoration efforts, such as seismic line reclamation in Alberta, have improved habitat connectivity and reduced predator access. Since the inception of the Indigenous-led Caribou Patrol collision prevention program, no caribou have been hit by vehicles during active patrols, demonstrating the initiative’s effectiveness.

Caribou conservation combines laws, Indigenous leadership, and community action. Together, these efforts help caribou survive and thrive.

From 2013 to 2019, NCASI studied the effects of forest management on caribou nutrition. ⁠ ⁠ In B.C., the Caribou Recovery Program monitors herd sizes, health, and habitats.⁠ ⁠ Federal strategies have also mapped boreal caribou ranges and studied how logging and infrastructure affect them.⁠ ⁠Photo by guest contributor⁠ ⁠Stuart White⁠ (@caribou_stu_). #ShareCCPC #LastHopeCampaign #Biodiversity #EndangeredSpecies #Wildlife #Canada #Conservation #SaveCanadianWildlife #ConserveCanada

Habitat disturbance and climate change don’t just shrink the space caribou rely on, they can also increase mortality. Roads and cutblocks from logging bring more deer and moose into caribou habitat. Predators follow these prey into the area, which increases predation pressure.
