The Haliburton Highlands Land Trust has been in conversation with Wildlife Conservation Society Canada and through the implementation of a data sharing agreement, has provided data and mapping from the Highlands Corridor for consideration as a Key Biodiversity Area.
On January 5, the Highlander reported that Lynsey Grosfield, conservation communications manager for the Wildlife Conservation Society Canada, indicated there would be more local Key Biodiversity Areas identified in the future.
“There are a number of sites in the area. One that I can see being assessed right now in the boundaries of Haliburton County is the Highlands Corridor.”
