CPAWS Stop the extinction clock for Ontario caribou
Caribou

On April 27, the Ontario government released its long overdue Caribou Conservation Plan. The plan incorporates important scientific principles, but it fails to stop the extinction clock for woodland caribou.

The plan doesn't say how and when Ontario will protect woodland caribou habitat. In fact, it would allow logging and road building to occur in the remaining intact Boreal forest habitat.

We're calling for an immediate halt to development in the Woodland caribou's remaining habitat.

You can help!

Let the government know how it can improve the plan to ensure it will protect woodland caribou. The deadline for comment is May 27, so please act soon.

Take action now!
