[4] Additionally, there are three main popular hiking trails found within Fathom Five National Marine Park that provides visitors with views of old growth forests and the Georgian Bay.

The Saugeen Ojibway Peoples have inhabited the Bruce Peninsula and the area that is now Fathom Five National Marine Park for thousands of years.

Parks Canada and Saugeen Ojibway People's collaboration is said to yield a benefit to both parties with regard to overall ecosystem knowledge.

The centre was designed with environmental sustainability in mind, receiving $224,000 from the Federal House in Order initiative for implementation of innovative greenhouse gas reduction technology.

[6] With an annual visitation number of 490,388 from 2019-2021,[7] Fathom Five National Marine Park is a popular destination among locals and tourists.

[8] The Bruce Trail Burnt Point Loop has the longest hike of the three, encompassing 4.8 km, which passes through cedar forests and provides a stunning view of Georgian Bay.

The terrestrial ecosystems management plan was created to monitor the islands’ biogeography and to and reduce human impact on the environment.

[14] This migratory butterfly is found in Fathom Five Marine Park, as well as other parts of Southeast Canada and the Northeast United States during its breeding season in the summer.

[15] Upon breeding, the monarch butterflies embark on a mass migration of approximately 4,500 kilometres to their final resting place in Central Mexico.

[17] The species is found in the Fathom Five Marine Park, in habitats such as tall grass, bogs, marshes, shorelines, and forests.

[19] Currently, there are an estimated 1,000-3,000 adult eastern ribbon snakes inhabiting Ontario, and their numbers are steadily declining.

[20] The eastern whip-poor-will (Caprimulgus vociferus) is currently listed as threatened under the Species at Risk Act (SARA), and if proper measures are not taken it may become endangered.

[21] They are distinguished by their medium size and brown and grey feathers that provide them with excellent camouflage so that they can blend in with the surroundings.

[21] The eastern whip-poor-will is generally found in open woodlands with mixed conifers and deciduous trees.

[16][18] Lake Huron is home to 139 native fish species, many of which are found in Fathom Five Provincial park.

These fish sustain populations of larger predatory species such as pike, muskellunge, large and smallmouth bass, brook trout, and walleye.

[24] The reduction of coastal wetlands has greatly impacted turtles in Lake Huron, including the Bruce Peninsula.

Additionally, invasive species introduced via ballast water, man-made canals, aquaculture, and the pet trade have established large populations within the lakes.

These mussels are so prevalent that their filtration has drastically changed the clarity of the water, allowing algae to grow on rock structures on the lake bed where it would not previously be present.

[27] Fathom Five National Marine Park is part of the traditional unceded territory of Saugeen Ojibway people.

All the major fisheries are located on the Saugeen Ojibway people's region and it is their main source of food.

Prior to European arrival the Saugeen Ojibway people's territory extended as far as Southern Ontario.

The older demographic of the Saugeen Ojibway people expressed that there is a decline in the Lake Huron's whitefish population.

It is a symbol of a successful harvest and the Saugeen Ojibway people have a ceremony where the "chief" summons the whitefish and appreciate the lake for providing them with source of food and livelihood.

These are age old rituals that have been practiced since the 1800s where the Saugeen Ojibway people surrendered their land to the British crown.

Since Parks Canada is a Federal agency, it will allow the Saugeen Ojibway people to make necessary progress in their legal demands for their food security and territory.
