The Nature Conservancy of Canada has initiated a new conservation project protecting the Morrison Lake Nature Reserve, a 970-hectare area northeast of Sault Ste. Marie, featuring thriving forests, wetlands, and crystal-clear lakes, home to many threatened species.
Morrison Lake Nature Reserve is a 970-hectare area near Algoma Headwaters Provincial Park.
“Given the expansive size of the property, its rich habitats and the proximity to other protected lands, the Morrison Lake project was a high priority for conservation,” said the Nature Conservancy of Canada.A vast 970-hectare area featuring thriving forests, wetlands and crystal-clear lakes northeast of Sault Ste. Marie is now protected, marking a significant win for nature.
The project marks a significant achievement towards NCC’s goal of ensuring broader networks of protected and crown lands, particularly in the Lake Superior region. These connected conservation lands help to ensure a resilient landscape, providing habitat for wide ranging species like moose and black bear, as well as important ecosystem services for people like filtering air and water and storing carbon.
This project showcases how NCC is accelerating the pace of conservation in Canada. Over the next few years, the organization will double its impact by mobilizing people and delivering permanent, large-scale conservation. In the face of rapid biodiversity loss and climate change, nature is our ally. There is no solution to either without nature conservation.
