  • Creating Monarch and Pollinator Habitat

    2025-12-05

    Private landowners are increasingly interested in restoring areas of their property to provide improved habitat for Monarchs and other pollinators. While there is abundant information on small-scale gardening with native plants, there is much less on planting at larger scales, such as on one acre or more of land. Here is a brief introduction for landowners in southeastern Canada interested in restoring an area of an acre or more in a cost-effective way.

  • Wild About Turtles Poster

    2025-12-05

    Turtles have been around for over 200 million years and look nearly the same today as they did then. They are unique creatures - the only living vertebrates with a bony shell which is their main line of defense against predators.Currently, twelve turtle species live in Canada or off of our coasts. Eight are found inland, in wetland areas and the remaining four are at sea. In the past an additional species, the Pacific pond turtle, lived in British Columbia but is now Extirpated and can no longer be found in Canada.
