Management plan for the rusty blackbird (Euphagus carolinus) in Canada .: En3-5/51-2015E-PDF
The management objective for Rusty Blackbird is two-fold. First to stop the decline, and then maintain the population at its 2014 level, and second to increase the population, resulting in a 10-year sustained increase in the population of Rusty Blackbird in Canada. Four broad strategies have been identified to achieve the objective: 1) address key knowledge gaps regarding Rusty Blackbird population sizes, trends, distributions, reproductive success, and habitat requirements throughout Canada; 2) identify and better understand threats to Rusty Blackbird throughout its breeding, wintering, and migration ranges; 3) stewardship and threat mitigation for Rusty Blackbird; and 4) encourage and carry out collaborations pertaining to management and conservation-related activities throughout Rusty Blackbird’s range. This management plan also proposes specific conservation measures, guided by these broad strategies, to achieve the management objective.
