In early 2023, the B.C. Wildlife Federation launched 10,000 Wetlands, an ambitious project focused on beaver-based restoration. The 10,000 Wetlands project is designed to address environmental challenges in a changing climate by installing 100 Beaver Dam Analogues (BDAs) across the province. By partnering with First Nations, environmental NGOs, and government entities our overall aim is to kickstart the creation and restoration of over 10,000 wetlands province-wide by mimicking and promoting beaver establishment. The BCWF’s 10,000 Wetlands project is a significant step forward in the Federation’s overall efforts to restore and enhance wetland ecosystems, promote biodiversity, and improve watershed resilience through nature-based solutions.
