Produced by the Wilderness Committee, Toad People tells the story of people in communities across British Columbia who are taking action to save the wildlife in their backyard – whether it’s toads, mountain caribou, rattlesnakes or barn owls.

Their work is immense. Because despite having some of the most diverse wildlife in North America – including 1,900 species at risk – BC is one of only two provinces in Canada with no endangered species law.

For the last four years, co-directors Mike McKinlay and Isabelle Groc have documented intensive community efforts to save species at risk in British Columbia and explored the urgent need for a BC endangered species law. Today, they bring those stories and the people behind them together in Toad People.
