Description:
The Wycliffe Conservation Complex encompasses 1109 hectares (2740 acres) of ecologically significant grasslands and forested habitat in the southern Rocky Mountain Trench, and is conserved and managed in a partnership between the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC), The Nature Trust of BC (NTBC), and the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (MFLNRORD) (the Partners). Throughout the complex, a mosaic of native grassland, open forest and closed forest provide a variety of habitat types to a suite of wildlife, including several species-at-risk. The goal of this project was to implement habitat restoration prescriptions that were developed in 2020 to enhance dry open forest habitats and at-risk species on the Wycliffe Conservation Complex (Complex).
