Wildlife Preservation Canada utilizes science-based techniques such as conservation breeding and release, reintroduction and translocation.
At the same time, Canada's conservation capacity is increased by providing young scientists the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in working with species at risk.
Canada's New Noah scholarship program is designed to develop future conservation leaders with specialized expertise in recovery techniques for species on the brink of extinction.
Scientists collect high-quality field data so the impact of their efforts may be quantified and effective recovery strategies planned.
When the data shows that hands-on intervention is no longer necessary—as in the case of the swift fox—the resources are deployed to help other species in greater need.
