Description:
Video of the restoration of habitats for Species at Risk in Wyliffe Wildlife Corridor. The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) and partner organizations are enhancing habitat for species at risk in the Wycliffe Conservation Complex (WCC), including by thinning the existing forest to help the forest transition to a more historic forest composition. WCC is an ecologically important area that contains a diversity of habitat types and is home to species at risk including the American Badger, Lewis’s Woodpecker, and Williamson’s Sapsucker. This video summarizes NCC’s ecosystem enhancement and restoration projects in the WCC in Year 4 of Kootenay Connect.
