Critical habitat of the Burrowing Owl in Saskatchewan (Published)
The paper highlights at the basic level some of the factors accounting for the declining numbers of burrowing owl populations in Saskatchewan. Apparently, a Recovery strategy for the Burrowing Owl has been introduced but its success will depend on different approaches. Drawing on secondary data, this paper suggests bird recovery successes on lands not classified as protected areas or where major economic sacrifices are needed may be complicated.
