2023 Ecological Report

Prepared by biologist Sabina Leader Mense, this report on the ecological significance of the Children's Forest proves our statement that this ecosystem must be protected.

It contains data on at-risk plant and animal species found on these lands, explores the impact of FTCCIS-driven initiatives to steward them, and outlines the importance of their role as an ecological bridge, both on Cortes Island and as part of the greater Discovery Islands archipelago.
