June 2 is , and we’re taking a moment to showcase the Hudson Bay Lowlands.

One of the world’s largest remaining intact peatlands, these ecosystems have a crucial role in mitigating climate change and supporting biodiversity.

Despite the importance of this area, the Government of Ontario is unilaterally trying to fast-track mining in the Hudson Bay Lowlands without a proper assessment of environmental impacts or the Free, Prior and Informed Consent of all affected Indigenous Peoples.

You can help speak up for the Hudson Bay Lowlands by donating to strengthen our joint efforts with LAND to host community events, amplify opposition to Bill 5 and elevate the voices Indigenous land protectors here:

It’s World Otter Day, celebrated on the last Wednesday of May, and even though it’s hump day, we’re sliding towards the weekend like a river otter 🦦💦

The playful antics of river otters have fascinated people for generations, but these elusive mammals are still surprisingly difficult for researchers to study. From their wide-ranging movements to the lack of distinctive markings that make individuals hard to identify, scientists are still uncovering the mysteries behind their behaviour and social lives.

Dive into a favourite ON Nature magazine feature, “Riverdancers,” to learn more about these charismatic creatures, the conservation challenges they still face and why they continue to captivate researchers and wildlife lovers alike.
