Algonquin to Adirondacks: Making the Connection

The Algonquin to Adirondacks conservation initiative
(A2A) is an 
ambitious
bi-national effort to maintain connected wildlife
habitat across the 
region of
eastern Ontario and northern New York that lies
between Algonquin Park 
and the
Adirondacks Park. Habitat connections are important
for many species of 
wildlife
including lynx, moose, and even plants.  The A2A link
is of 
conservation
significance at the continental scale, and the Ottawa
Valley Chapter of 
CPAWS is
playing a major role.  In collaboration with a range
of partner 
organizations we
are leading a conservation mapping project and
developing material to 
support
private land stewardship.  Come and learn more from a
team of CPAWS 
presenters
including Jean Langlois, Nick Stow, and Richard
Deering.

Plus: John MacKenzie with a talk/slide show
presentation on fishers and 
on
fluctuations in various species of interest in eastern
Ontario.
