Canadian species at risk / Issued by COSEWIC: Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada. : CW70-8E

The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) was created in 1977 as a result of a recommendation at the Federal- Provincial Wildlife Conference held in 1976. It arose from the need for a single, official, scientifically sound, national listing of wildlife species at risk. In 1978, COSEWIC designated its first species and produced its first list of Canadian species at risk. Species designated at annual meetings are added to the list.--Back cover of the issue of May, 2000
