DESCRIPTION:Engage in meaningful conversations and advocacy efforts to protect our mountains.\nOn November 2\, join Y2Y at the UCalgary Wildlife Conservation club to experience the awe-inspiring journeys of wildlife in some of the world’s most dramatic mountain ranges. From the rugged Rockies to the towering peaks of the Himalayas\, witness the remarkable adaptations and survival strategies of wildlife through the changing seasons\, as captured in a breathtaking “Mountains” episode of Planet Earth II. Following the screening\, we will hear from Y2Y’s Landscape Protection Manager\, Adam Linnard. \nThis event is part of Moving Mountains \, a one day confluence that offers programming on climate action and provides a forum to build relationships\, learn new concepts\, share experiences so that each of us will leave feeling encouraged to continue our climate action work to build our collective healthy and just futures. \nSnacks and refreshments will be provided. Tickets are free\, but RSVPs are required. \nRegister \n\nAbout the Presenter: \n \nAdam Linnard is Y2Y’s Landscape Protection Manager in his hometown of Canmore\, on Treaty 7 territory. He guides campaigns to protect key wildlife habitat and ensure that animals can move between and beyond those protected areas\, focusing on headwaters regions\, wildlife corridors\, and highway crossings. \nWith a mixed background in environmental justice\, literary ecocriticism\, and international poverty relief\, Adam combines these interests in working for sustainable\, justice-oriented\, thriving communities that make space for other-than-human beings as well. Adam likes to be outside\, on foot\, in inclement weather. \nAbout Moving Mountains \nThis event is also in collaboration with the Sustainability Film Series co-hosted by Bow Valley College\, Mount Royal University\, SAIT\, Ambrose University\, and the University of Calgary.

Hear about coexistence strategies that are working to keep people and bears safe throughout the Yellowstone to Yukon region and why they are so important for the health of other species and the entire ecosystem. \nPanelists:  \n\nNadine Raynolds\, Communities and Conservation Director\, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative\nBrynn McLellan\, Research Associate\, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative\n\n\nA Brotherhood of Wolves\nShowtime: 2:30 p.m. MDT \nDiscover the story of Pluie the Wolf\, or ‘the wolf who started it all’ and how her journey over great distances inspired the creation of the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative. Hear about how natural wolf populations can keep ecosystems balanced and what they need to flourish in this modern world from the Arctic circle to Yellowstone National Park. \nPanelists: \n\nGraham Neale\n\n\nMaternity Ward for Caribou\nShowtime: 4:00 p.m. MDT \n“The caribou were there when we needed them\, now the caribou need us. We need to get involved and help them.” – Chief Roland Willson  \nHear about how one caribou herd in northern British Columbia has been brought back from the point of extinction through Indigenous-led conservation and stewardship\, and thanks to many partners including Y2Y. Caribou are often referred to as ‘The Canary in the Coal Mine’ when it comes to the health of a landscape. Because they are a wide-ranging species\, they represent the health of many other species on the landscape. Learn about the successes and challenges of this work\, and why keeping these iconic species healthy and abundant is important for people and nature. \nPanelists:  \n\nTim Burkhart\, Director of Landscape Protection\, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative\nCarmen Richter\, biologist\, and Saulteau First Nations Land Guardian program advisor\n\n\nNew Home for Bison\nShowtime: 5:30 p.m. MDT \nTake a journey alongside the majestic bison\, also known as buffalo\, as they are brought back to the habitats where they once roamed. See how the reintroduction of bison is shaping the ecosystems they call home for the better. Learn about efforts to bring the bison back to Banff National Park in Alberta\, as well as the policies that can either help\, or hinder\, bison’s ability to survive in the wild. \n\nNicole Olivier\, Landscape Protection Manager\, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative\nKeith Aune\, Conservation Scientist and Consultant\n\n\nHeader photos (left to right):\nGrizzly bear.
