the aurora trout need your help

in my last post, i encouraged you to take action on behalf of temagami. this week, I'd like to point out something concrete you can do, today, to fulfill the earth day pledge. ontario's new endangered species act is being debated at queen's park. our mpp's need to hear that the people of ontario support this important legislation. wildlands league has put together an excellent resource for us to use to learn more about the esa, as well as take action by writing our provincial representatives. you can find their page on the esa here.

so before we go, can you name all of temagami's species at risk?
