Many species in Canada have not yet been assessed by COSEWIC, but are suspected of being at some risk of extinction or extirpation. COSEWIC's Candidate List is a compilation of such species, indicating those that have priority for assessment. As time and resources allow, COSEWIC will commission status reports for candidate species so that an assessment can be undertaken. Status reports are commissioned by COSEWIC through an open competition. A Call for Bids is periodically posted on this website both for selected candidate species, and also for designated species that require reassessment. You can register to be notified when new Calls for Bids are posted on the Web site.
