Caribou are a nationally iconic species in British Columbia
Welcome to the Provincial Caribou Recovery Engagement site. This site is home to your opportunity to engage on caribou recovery.
Caribou Recovery Program
Caribou are a nationally iconic species and British Columbia is home to 55 herds of woodland caribou. Despite significant investments in managing these herds, some of our caribou populations have become threatened. We continue to invest in the recovery and maintenance of our caribou for future generations and this will take a group effort from all who call British Columbia home.
We are engaging at multiple levels and have a variety of opportunities to receive feedback from anyone interested in caribou recovery. Some engagement topics require deep conversations with select groups and individuals. While other engagement topics are broadly open to all. We look forward to working with you. Your feedback will help us recover caribou.
