Lost species affect the environment negatively and can disrupt ecosystems. Since the 1940s, many conservation efforts have been successful in helping the whooping crane population increase. By failing to ensure that whooping crane habitats have enough food in their winter habitat, the positive effects of conservation have been set back. The State of Texas breached the Migratory Bird Treaty and is liable for the deaths of whooping cranes. Given the outcome of the lawsuit, this situation could happen again in the future. As Canadian citizens, it’s extremely difficult to impact foreign legal decisions, but we can lobby our own government and legislators to encourage more participation in future international issues like this. We can also work with environmental organizations to work towards common goals for the benefit of the environment. We know that habitats must be properly protected and maintained by all parties involved to help not only the whooping crane, but other species as well, recover their population and thrive. Even just on our own as concerned citizens, we can raise awareness about the whooping crane. Although it might not seem like much, the effort that citizens put in can make a huge difference in the health of our endangered
In a world where technology has cultivated the interests of individuals of every age, it's difficult to turn off a screen and appreciate the world around us. According to Gus Yaki’s son, David Yaki, "If he saw something that he could make better, he tried to make it better." Yaki inspired Canadians to cherish animals and their habitats. In doing so, he became a member of the directors of the Federation of Ontario Naturalists. For two years, Yaki was the President of the local Nature Club in Lindsay, Ontario.
In the past, I spent a summer researching the effects of climate change on small mammals under the mentorship of a college professor, and greatly enjoyed the experience. However, participation at the National Wildlife Refuge will foster a myriad of different skills. For instance, I will learn how to identify and handle different species like reptiles and amphibians, control the growth of invasive plants, test water quality, build fences or other structures, and interact with visiting groups. These activities, none of which I hold experience with, will provide me with insight into my consideration of working at a national wildlife refuge after graduating from Notre
