There are now thought to be less than a dozen spotted owls hanging on in their fragmented Canadian old-growth forest habitat in southwestern BC.
Both the BC and federal governments have pledged to bring the Canadian population of spotted owls back from the brink of elimination. But it's hard to see how this species can be brought back to healthy numbers if we don't protect enough old-growth forest habitat so that they can have a safe place to live.
Please write BC Premier Christy Clark to ask her to order an immediate halt to the logging of spotted owl old-growth forest habitat near Chilliwack Lake and to ensure that all remaining spotted owl old-growth forest habitat in southwest BC is protected from logging.
