Marine Mammals and Sea Turtle Census

Research is an essential part of wildlife conservation. Canada is a
vast country with a multitude of different species of mammals, birds, reptiles,
amphibians, and insects. Scientists can't possibly keep track of each and every
wildlife population, and it takes a huge amount of time and effort to gather
all the information needed to protect them. A lot of conservation organizations

our wildlife species. Data collected from far and wide help scientists
determine which species and ecosystems are in trouble, find ways of conserving
them, or prevent them from getting in trouble in the first place. You can do
