Canada’s woodland caribou, symbols of our national identity, have declined steadily due to expanding industrial development in the Boreal forest.
We can only save the remaining woodland caribou by protecting their habitat in our intact northern Boreal forests. It’s not too late, but governments need to act now.
Please let your provincial/territorial representative know that you want them to establish protected areas for caribou before permitting development such as logging, mining and energy development in intact boreal forests.

“By saving the woodland caribou’s remaining Boreal Forest habitat, we’ll also help protect one of the world’s largest natural carbon reserves and slow the effects of climate change.”
thegreenpages.ca network is working with Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society to help gather signatures to convince the Federal Government to identify and protect Woodland caribou habitat under the Species at Risk Act.
