CONSULTATIONS FOR LEGAL LISTINGS: FALL 2005

Your views were sought to assist the government of Canada in making an informed decision on whether to add any or all of the following four aquatic species to Schedule 1 (List of Wildlife Species at Risk) of the Species at Risk Act (SARA). The species had been designated by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC), and included: North Pacific Right Whale (Endangered), Fin Whale (Threatened), Green Sturgeon (Special Concern) and Bering Cisco (Special Concern).

This workbook provided background information on SARA and the four species being considered for legal listing.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION!
