Saskatchewan Wildlife Conservation

Ecology, Biology, and Saskatchewan Wildlife Management: Water and wildlife are two of Canada’s most precious resources. It is important to understand the ecology of each. In this microcredential, participants will examine how wildlife populations relate to their environment. Participants will also learn the life history and biology of Saskatchewan wildlife and examine at-risk species in Saskatchewan.

The target audience is anyone wanting to enter the natural resource/environmental tourism sector or supplement their current training. Technicians who work in northern mines, or for environmental consulting companies, and do field sample collection, would benefit from understanding wildlife management techniques. The intended learners are Indigenous youth and adults. The earner of this micro-credential will be able to describe the ecological land classification system ecology of land associated with lake ecosystems and understand resource legislation relevant to Indigenous peoples and how these topics relate to conservation management.
