DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe piping plover (Charadrium melodus) is an endangered species in Alberta. In 2001, the Alberta Piping Plover Recovery Team was formed, and an inaugural recovery plan (2002-2004) was launched. An updated plan, with similar goals, strategies and activities was drafted in 2005. This report summarizes activities completed during implementation of the Alberta Piping Plover Recovery Plan, 2005-2010, and sets the stage for a new recovery plan to be drafted in 2010. The activities relate to resource acquisition, population monitoring and research, productivity enhancements, habitat management and protection, and outreach.--Includes text from document.
