Description:
In year four (2022-2023) of the Kootenay Connect project the Columbia Wetlands Stewardship Partners (CWSP) continued work on Species at Risk in the Columbia Valley, from Canal Flats north to Golden. We built upon knowledge gained in previous years and developed conservation actions benefiting four at-risk species: Western painted turtle – intermountain – Rocky Mountain population (Chrysemys picta pop. 2), American badger (Taxidea taxus jeffersonii, eastern population), Lewis’s woodpecker (Melanerpes lewis), and osprey (Pandion haliaetus).
