- Abstract
- Alberta has abundant natural areas that support a broad range of birds and wildlife. The Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBA) program is one way in which we help support and promote the protection and conservation of these natural areas that are essential habitat for bird populations, which have been shown to be effective indicators of wider biodiversity. The Important Bird and Biodiveristy Areas Checklist introduces you to Alberta’s IBAs, and highlights a fascinating piece of our province’s natural history that we hope you will take the time to learn about, experience and enjoy.
