Canadian fields and forests have an important role to play in supporting our communities, our economy and our wildlife. Wildlife in our fields and forests are feeling the effects of changing and declining habitat, the use of toxins such as pesticides and herbicides, and climate change. The health of the majority of Canada’s wildlife depends on conservation actions taken in our forests, fields and farmlands.
Be One With Nature and #DoMoreForWildlife with one or more of these actions:
Help Canada’s pollinators by inviting them to your yard. Make your garden beautiful AND beneficial by adding native plants. Encourage your municipality to do the same by mowing less and adding native vegetation to roadsides, power corridors and other rights-of-way!
Watch a vintage Hinterland Who’s Who vignette about the bumblebee, a current video about pollinators or the webisode Pollinators – Busy Doing What?
From strawberries to apples to chocolate, one in every three bites of food we take depends on pollination. Learn what you can do to create a happy habitat in your yard for our pollinating pals.
As nature comes back into bloom and our pollinators are back at work, upload your nature observations or past photos to add to a global database of biodiversity.
