An astounding new guidebook packed with colour photographs, day trips, personal reflections, and a variety of activities for nature lovers of all ages.

Wildlife Weekends invites readers to discover the wildlife living within the many different ecosystems of southern British Columbia. Greater ecological awareness offers readers the ability to deeply appreciate and understand animals and their habitats. With knowledge comes action, ultimately resulting in more people placing greater value on protecting, conserving, and even rewilding ecosystems. Written as a guidebook with 20 species-focused chapters, Wildlife Weekends leads the reader to sites with trails, boardwalks, parking, and restrooms, all within a six-hour drive from Vancouver. Each chapter guides the reader to a place-based discovery of species in their local ecosystems. Topics include natural history, Indigenous cultural and Traditional Ecological Knowledge, current scientific research, and personal stories from wildlife researchers. Themes include how to engage with and take action to protect a species, ethical viewing considerations, minimizing the carbon footprint of your experience, and understanding how each species is affected by climate change. Special emphasis is placed on getting children and youth involved and on resources to grow one's knowledge.
