Q & A
Tyler Kristiansen

My Blog
Hometown:
Edmonton, AB
What conservation issue is closest to your heart?
If I could choose to help solve any issue it would be the melting of the polar ice which is leading the decline of the Polar Bear population. It would be terrible to see the loss of such a species, and even worse if nothing is done about it.
What are you hoping to learn from CCC?
I expect to learn skills and get field experience as well as knowledge from conservation experts from many different fields.
Who/what inspired you to care about conservation?
Right out of high school I got a job at the local zoo. I knew right away that I wanted to work with animals in some capacity. Not in a way that forced animals to live their lives in cages, but in a way that helped them in their natural habitats.
If you could sit down with anyone in the world and have tea or coffee, who would it be? And why?
Casey Anderson, the American wildlife naturalist. I really admire the work he does and I think it would be really interesting to hear what he thinks about a couple different issues.

My Experience So Far

Putting the Fun in Fundy

Stage 1

For Group 11 CCC members, the adventure begins in New Brunswick, where members set off for a paddling adventure on the Bay of Fundy. There they will practice their paddling and wilderness camp skills before setting off to kayak from Back Bay to Oak Bay, through Passamaquoddy Bay via the lower St. Croix River. Along the way the team will have the opportunity to be awe-struck by the scenery while enjoying all that Fundy has to offer.

Conservation Field Learning

Stage 2

Location: PEI

Hosting Organization: PEI Wildlife Federation

Description: CCC member field learning with the PEI Wildlife Federation will be focused on a variety of projects, including agriculture, stream enhancement, the Atlantic Salmon Population Baseline Watershed Survey in Hay River, fishing of green crab, monitoring Giant Irish Moss beds, eelgrass monitoring in Basin Head Marine Protected area, coastal restoration and conducting outreach and guided tours in a Marine Protected Environment.
