Nature conservancy group takes stock of Sask. species
Critters, plants and even birds- there was no species left out when a national conservation group spent the weekend cataloguing species.
The Nature Conservancy of Canada hosted a bioblitz with the help of volunteers on Saturday, July 9 at Nebo site, 70 km west of Prince Albert.
The event saw the group catalogue over 60 species according to Sarah Ludlow, GIS co-ordinator with the group. Ludlow’s job involves mapping habitat areas in nature.
“The purpose of our event is to create a baseline of what species, both plant and animal are on the property that will allow us to better inform our management practices,” she said.
