We need your help!
Canada's natural heritage is under siege and many of our iconic species (caribou and wolverine) and landscapes (boreal forests and wetlands) are threatened by human impact, particularly industrial development and its associated infrastructure. The Wildlife Conservation Society Canada (WCS) needs your help so that WCS can conserve wildlife and wild lands across Canada.
There are many ways to help. Please choose what would be most appropriate for you. For a list of options and their benefits to you, please click here. Or contact us directly at 416-850-9038 or wcscanada@wcs.org.

The Bedside Book of Beasts
As a spectacular companion The Bedside Book of Birds, Graeme Gibson’s latest book, The Bedside Book of Beasts, explores relationships between predators and their prey.
Gibson’s pairing of artwork with literary works of art such as poetry, fables, myths, and sacred writings take the reader into the world of fictional, evil beasts such as the Minotaur, to the real thing such as wild cats, wolves, bears and even the small but no less beast-like animals such as the ant-lion and the water shrew.
Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) Canada, as part of the WCS Global Conservation Program, is benefitting directly from the sale of this magnificent book. Gibson is generously donating one half of the net profits from the sale of The Bedside Book of Beasts of to a WCS project in Iran to support the Iranian Cheetah Project in partnership with Panthera.
This Asian cheetah has been wiped out from its entire range in Asia, except for a small and critically endangered population in the Islamic Republic of Iran. These last cheetahs are now thought to number around 60-100 animals, all found in the remote, central plateau of Iran.
For the past several years, WCS has assisted the Iran Department of Environment by implementing emergency measures to help save the cheetah, including: preventing the killing of cheetahs and their prey, planning new protected areas, and supplying staff and equipment for existing protected areas. WCS has also undertaken surveys to determine the distribution and abundance of the Asiatic cheetah and other animals such as the leopard, wolf, and striped hyena; as well as gazelles, wild goats, and hares in the best-known cheetah areas. WCS has been training government staff to conduct surveys of these key species in the five “cheetah” reserves found in the central plateau region. In 2007, WCS began working with Panthera, and together these two organizations have been working in partnership to provide the technical assistance necessary to help return the cheetah to its rightful place as the top predator of southwest Asia’s open plains.
Graeme is not only telling the world about wild beasts, both large and small, he’s helping us to reconnect with wildlife and through his own generous act, Graeme is helping save one of the world’s most endangered beast of them all.
Caribou and the North: A shared Future
Order your copy today!
The harsh climates of the Canadian and Alaskan wilderness demands tough survival skills. Now, climate change coupled with widespread oil, gas, and mineral development adds new pressure for the region’s iconic wildlife. These topics are addressed in Caribou and the North: A Shared Future, by Monte Hummel, President Emeritus of WWF-Canada, and Dr Justina C. Ray, Executive Director of Wildlife Conservation Society Canada (WCS Canada).
The book explores the reason for the interlinked fate of caribou and the North, as it relates to migratory tundra caribou, boreal forest caribou, and mountain caribou in Canada and the U.S. It features 125 photographs, 40 maps, forewords by Robert Redford and Stephen Kakfwi (former Premier of the Northwest Territories), as well as original sketches by Robert Bateman to introduce each of the book’s four major sections. Caribou and the North will interest anyone invested in the fate of our continent’s iconic wildlife and the conservation challenges of our time.
