SPECIES-AT-RISK
We understand that we are not separate from nature, but a part of it. This means we have a responsibility to act in nature’s best interest in all of our work.
We use our expertise and influence to protect our natural world by protecting specific species and habitats, promoting and participating in advocacy campaigns, and consulting with government and partner organizations to achieve common goals related to the conservation of our environment.
Agroecosystems
Nature NB values the important role many agricultural producers play in providing local food, supporting local economies, and serving as stewards for wildlife. Farms of all shapes and sizes provide habitat for species of conservation concern, such as the iconic Bobolink, the elusive Wood Turtle, and the acrobatic Barn Swallow.
Insect Surveys
Nature NB recently began Monarch staging surveys, tagging before their migration, as well as Bumblebee monitoring across Southern NB.
Healthy Coasts NB
Healthy Coasts NB is a multi-year, multi-partner project with the collective vision of “a path to healthy coasts and thriving communities in harmony with nature.” Using a two-eyed seeing approach, the project will work with communities to identify and support activities along the coast of the Gulf of St. Lawrence in New Brunswick that will benefit species and coastal habitats of conservation concern and cultural importance.
Beach Stewardship
The Coastal Guardians team coordinates Piping Plover and Bank Swallow surveys in Northern NB. This gives us valuable data on these at-risk birds that depend on a healthy shoreline, and is collected in the Beach Report Card.
