NCC’s Weston Family Conservation Science Fellow Emily Trendos is completing a PhD at the University of Guelph, in Ontario. Her research focuses on the population dynamics of the endangered mottled duskywing butterfly in southern Ontario. Results from her research will fill critical knowledge gaps to be able to support the persistence of this species in Canada.

When the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) conserved the vast forested refuge of Darkwoods in 2008, the grizzly bear population that roamed these lands needed help. They were isolated from other bears and their numbers were dwindling.

In this video, Grizzly bear research Dr. Michael Proctor and NCC’s Adrian Leslie discuss how we worked together to completely flip the

NCC’s Weston Family Conservation Science Fellow Justin Kreller is completing a MSc at Carleton University, in Ontario. His research focuses on understanding the drivers of plant invasions in Canada and predicting the spread and future burden of Canada’s most invasive pants under climate change. Results from his research will be used to support invasive species management and build more resilient landscapes.
