Alberta’s Prairie Grasslands
Alberta is home to some of Canada’s last remaining prairie grasslands – one of the most endangered ecosystems on Earth. From the Southern Foothills to the Milk River Basin and beyond, we work alongside ranching families to conserve what remains of these vital landscapes, sustaining wildlife, supporting livelihoods and keeping Alberta’s grasslands healthy and resilient for generations to come.

Buffalo Pound
Located northwest of Regina, the native grasslands surrounding Buffalo Pound Lake perform an essential job: filtering the drinking water relied on by about a quarter of Saskatchewan’s population. By conserving these endangered grasslands, we conserve clean water, support biodiversity and safeguard a landscape that communities rely on every day.
Bunchgrass Hills Conservation Area
South of Kamloops, Bunchgrass Hills protects one of BC’s rarest ecosystems. Grasslands make up only 1% of the province, yet they support more than 30% of its species at risk. Bunchgrass Hills anchors our work in the area, where we have conserved a network of more than 10,000 hectares of this vanishing prairie. Together, we can protect and connect more of this endangered ecosystem for the wildlife and people that depend on it.
Kootenay Forest Lands
In BC’s East Kootenay, near the Alberta and Montana borders, the Kootenay Forest Lands show what’s possible when we come together to protect nature. Spanning 45,000 hectares, this remarkable landscape sustains wildlife, connects people to nature and provides lasting benefits for local communities. By conserving these lands, we can safeguard their natural and cultural benefits for generations to come.
