[12] The Canadian Wildlife Federation's Science department focuses much of its attention on the conservation of both marine and land mammals throughout Canada.

[14] Canada houses many freshwater sources throughout the country including lakes and rivers, which are responsible for nearly 9% of the global renewable water energy supply.

Research and creating awareness among the public is focused on four main areas: As Canada has a vast coastline (234,000 km), bordered by three oceans, the federation works hard to maintain the health of the marine life.

[15] Climate change is a global issue that researchers believe will have serious, negative consequences in the future, but its current effect on wildlife is apparent.

The adaptations that many species have undergone to adjust to the varying climate include shifting their migratory ranges, migrating earlier or later than usual, and changing hibernation patterns.

[19] Named after a butterfly whose ranges were believed [citation needed] to be shifting as a result of global warming, Checkerspot claimed to be a climate neutral publication.

The financial support and resources that these partners offer help to increase awareness and stewardship of wildlife preservation in Canada.

The purpose of this walk is to raise awareness about sustainable forest management and conservation of habitats for Canadian wildlife.
