The purpose of establishing and promoting a wildlife viewing network in the Northern part of Vancouver Island is to provide an attraction to local and visiting nature and eco-tourism enthusiasts and to raise awarenwss of conservation initiatives.
Projects have been completed or are underway on Wildlife Reserves and Wildlife Management Areas near the communities of Sayward, Zeballos, Port McNeill and Port Hardy. Specifically these properties comprise the estuaries of the Salmon River, Sayward; Zeballos River, Zeballos; the Cluxewe Salt Marsh and Estuary; and the Quatse River Estuary in Hardy Bay, Port Hardy. These viewing opportunities are the "core" of a more extensive set of opportunities that are currently available on the North Island. |
