Are you a teacher? Would you like to teach your students about local biodiversity?

Landowners like you are essential to the conservation and protection of species at risk and their habitats.  By enhancing your property for wildlife you can contribute to Ontario’s biodiversity.  

An invitation: come and explore The Carolinian Life Zone. It's time to get to know the wildlife in your backyard. After all, where else can you find Kentucky Coffee Tree, Giant Tiger Swallowtail and Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus?

If you are interested in donating your time to an environmental cause, there are many local, provincial and national groups that you can join. Some focus on education, advocacy, land conservation, and more.

In the Carolinian life zone, we share our land with a vast mix of wild plants and animals. In terms of species diversity, we are the richest in the country. But we are also home to 1/3 of Canada's Species at Risk.
