Document Summary
Using the biodiversity conservation strategy for the okanagan region in. Tanis gieselman, msc project coordinator for occp. Distribution of the south okanagan grasslands: biogeoclimatic zones used just in bc, bunchgrass, ponderosa pine, interior douglas-fir, prairie"s grass is (cid:448)aster, (cid:449)hereas the oka(cid:374)aga(cid:374)"s grass gro(cid:449)s i(cid:374) bunches. Distribution of the development: urban development vs. biogeoclimatic zones. Distribution of the protected areas: the steep and high places: parks/protected areas vs. urban development vs. biogeoclimatic zones. How is the remaining habitat affected after development: haynes lease ecological reserve highly endangered (red-listed) How far away is the remaining grassland affected: seeds get deposited further and further away. How many are left: okanagan habitat atlas, lost 50-70% of grasslands, for wetlands, 80% has been lost. The okanagan is a major wildlife migration corridor: important area because of important species and genetics. How do you travel this corridor as a big-horn sheep or a butterfly: strategies need to be considered when planning for this sort of thing.
