Project Details
| Name | SḰŦÁMEN QENÁȽ,ENEȻ SĆȺ — Sidney Island Ecological Restoration Project |
| Description | The Coastal Douglas-fir forest ecosystem on SḰŦÁMEN (Sidney Island), which is home to rare species and ecological communities, is facing pressure from human development and invasive plant and wildlife species that threaten its long-term survival. Parks Canada worked with partners including W̱SÁNEĆ Leadership Council (representing Tsartlip (tsart-lip) First Nation and Tseycum (say-come) First Nation), Tsawout (tsay-out) First Nation, Pauquachin (paw-kwuh-chin) First Nation, Sidney Island residents, Islands Trust Conservancy, and the Province of British Columbia to (1) permanently remove the invasive European fallow deer population; (2) remove invasive plant species and re-establish native trees and shrubs; and (3) plan for the long-term, sustainable management of native black-tailed deer. | Learn more about the project: https://parks.canada.ca/pn-np/bc/gulf/nature/restauration-restoration/forets-forests |

Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions
Absolute value (STAR)
0
0% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of Canada is covered by this project.
2,271.6
0.4% of The Americas's biodiversity conservation potential is from Canada.
543,527.6
45.4% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from The Americas.
This stacked bar chart represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
