dc.description.abstractHundreds of Canadian wildlife species today face the risk of extinction. Some are vital characters in our diverse cultures and histories; some are the last of their kind in the world and all of them have an essential role to play in the environments where they live. In the aquatic world, these species are astoundingly diverse ranging from tiny freshwater molluscs to roving giants of the oceans like the North Atlantic right whale and the famous blue whale. The question is not if we should try to protect them from vanishing forever. The question is how to go about it. Canada's Species at Risk Act (SARA) is an important part of the answer.en_US
