This was mentioned last week at the #PCESC19 conference by @ManitobaIBA & @BSC_Manitoba. Great to hear that this #workinglandscape is providing significant habitat for #SAR. Also demonstrates the importance of active range management to conserve our native prairies
A new portion of native MB prairie has just been nationally recognized as an Important Bird & Biodiversity Area (IBA)! Thanks to our IBA program, Bird Studies Canada and Nature Canada, two local areas now recognized as critically important for wildlife!! #Manitoba#conservation

We had a fantastic time @pcesc19 this week. It was an excellent opportunity to learn about the work being done: habitat management, population studies, bird, mammal, and insect conservation, and partnerships between ecologists and livestock producers. Strong prairie allies!
