Important Bird Areas in Canada
Connecting Birds and PeopleCanada’s
Important Bird Areas program is a science-based
initiative to identify, conserve and monitor a network
of sites that provide essential habitat for
Canada’s bird populations.
The purpose of this
website is to
- Identify a network
of sites that conserve the natural diversity of
Canadian bird species and are critical for the long-term
viability of naturally occurring bird populations;
- Determine the type
of protection or stewardship required for each site,
and ensure the conservation of sites through
partnerships of local stakeholders who develop and
implement appropriate on-the-ground conservation
plans;
- Establish ongoing
local involvement in site protection and monitoring.
