what can we do?

"Individuals and industries are coming to realize that many wastes do not disappear when dumped into the air, earth or water but spread through the biosphere; that we shall have to consider the environmental effects of each societies requirements (energy, transportation, sewage disposal, wetlands and leisure time) and that the habitat of mankind includes nature."

There are 12 animals that have already been affected:

  • Black footed ferret (extirpated in 1937, reintroduced in 2009)

  • Swift Fox (extirpated)

  • Sea Mink (extinct)

ENDANGERED, EXTIRPATED AND EXTINCT ANIMALS IN CANADA

Threatened means having an uncertain chance of continued survival

Major factors affecting

  • Exploitation through hunting fishing gathering of eggs or young

  • Destruction of habitat and pollution

  • Decrease in forest cover

  • Lack of natural vegetation to control erosion on stream banks

  • Woodlots on many farms

  • Air pollution from acid and other toxic substances and water pollution by industry, individuals and municipalities

protecting the habitats

The requirements for an aquatic animal include:

  • spawning grounds
  • nursery areas,
  • unobstructed rivers for migration into the sea and returning to spawning grounds
  • estuarine and offshore feeding spots for the young and adults.

  • Terrestrial habitats are also vulnerable,
  • salt licks,
  • summer and winter ranges
  • and undisturbed calving grounds

are necessary for survival of its species

  • the smallest change or unavailable requirement affects its species.
