Published purpose

This contribution supports Laurentian University to further understand the spatial ecology of the Blanding Turtles, a Species-at-Risk on Beausoleil Island in Georgian Bay Islands National Park. The funds will support a MSc student to conduct an analysis on a multi-year dataset of Blanding’s turtle, including nesting site selection, population distribution and recruitment on Beausoleil Island. The analysis will assist in understanding population dynamics and guide key habitat protection actions at Georgian Bay Islands National Park.
