NCC’s Weston Family Conservation Science Fellow Zachary Moore completed a Master’s of Natural Resource Management at the University of Manitoba in 2024. His research focused on the impacts of habitat and range health on grassland songbirds in the Waterton Park Front, in southwestern Alberta. Results from his research impact decisions about how to secure, restore and manage land with cattle grazing to benefit grassland birds.

The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is working to conserve Buckbrush Ridge, a 388-hectare property just outside Waterton Lakes National Park in the Waterton Biosphere Reserve. This vital landscape connects with over 12,500 hectares of existing conserved lands, creating essential corridors for wildlife movement. Species like grizzly bears, wolves and elk depend on these connected habitats to survive and reproduce.
