A Big Win for Piping Plovers!
Together with our partners, we recently won an important victory when the Court of Appeal upheld the conviction against the Town of South Bruce Peninsula for destroying piping plover habitat. This decision will help ensure that endangered plovers will always find safe haven in Ontario to raise their young. It confirms our collective intent and responsibility – as expressed in the Endangered Species Act – to protect and recover our most vulnerable plants and animals.

Protect Endangered Species
You can help us take action to save vulnerable, threatened and endangered wildlife in your backyard and across our province. By giving today, you will support environmental advocacy, legal actions, and the protection and restoration of wetlands. Your support also grows a community of people dedicated to increasing our collective knowledge of wildlife across the province.
We are a powerful collective voice for Ontario’s most vulnerable species. And right now, we have an opportunity and a responsibility to protect our at-risk species and the places they call home.
