Preventing the spread of invasive alien species
Help us prevent the spread of invasive species. Clean, drain and dry your personal watercraft before boating at the park. Buy your firewood in the park and burn it on site.
Maintaining and restoring ecological connectivity
The conservation team works in consultation with regional stakeholders to maintain and restore the pathways animals use to move on land or in water.
Keep the "wild" in wildlife
Wildlife needs its space. It's important to always keep a safe distance from animals and avoid feeding them, for everyone's safety.
