Wildlife Disturbance & Ethics in Nature

On the most recent episode of our Toronto Nature Now show on CJRU 1280AM, the show’s host Kyana Alvarez welcomed our president, Zunaid Khan. We discuss how our behaviour can impact wildlife in our green spaces and how to behave ethically while enjoying nature. You can listen to the episode on Soundcloud.

Toronto Field Naturalists wishes to acknowledge this Land through which we walk. For thousands of years, the Land has been shared by the Wendat, the Haudenosaunee, and the Anishinaabe. Toronto is situated on the Land within the Toronto Purchase, Treaty 13, the traditional and treaty Lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This territory is also part of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum, a covenant agreement between Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, Wendat peoples and allied nations to peaceably share the land and all its resources. Today, the Land is home to peoples of numerous nations. We are all grateful to have the opportunity to continue to care for and share the beauty of this Land.
