Well, Earth Rangers, that’s a wrap on another otterly amazing project! Our partners at CPAWS had an awesome year and did a ton of work to help river otters in the Saskatchewan River Delta. Their goal was to permanently protect a 4,000 square kilometre piece of this amazing ecosystem, one of the most biodiverse landscapes in all of Canada, and thanks to your support they’ve done just that! Here’s some highlights from last year:
- Part of the river delta is found on Cumberland
House Cree Nation, and in June 2021 their important role in protecting it was
made official! The land is now formally protected under Indigenous law, and the
community will help steward it to help conservation and restoration efforts for
years to come!
- In November, the Saskatchewan government announced that a nearly 100,000 hectare ecological reserve in the southern portion of the river delta would now be formally protected, a huge step in protecting the delta as a whole!
This amazing project would not have been possible without the hundreds of amazing Earth Rangers who purchased an Adoption Kit to protect the adorable otter. Thanks to you, we raised over $20,000 and helped make a big difference!
