We are tracking 8 lesser snow geese with cellular GPS devices!
Since the 1970s, the population of lesser snow geese has increased nearly 1,200%! The species is now considered overabundant and are not only causing damage to crop lands along their annual migration routes, but also to their summer breeding grounds, which are home to dozens of other bird species.
The Government of Canada has identified the reduction of lesser snow goose numbers as a priority for conservation efforts.
Spread the word and let's put our conservation efforts to work!
