Protecting BC's Flathead River Valley

The Flathead River Valley, tucked into BC’s southeast corner, hosts the highest density and greatest diversity of carnivores in North America, including at-risk species such as grizzlies, lynx and wolverines. The Flathead River is one of North America’s last wild rivers and has some of the purest water in the world; yet BC’s Outdoor Recreation Council named it the province’s Most Endangered River in 2009 because of a proposed coal strip mine and other potential energy and mining development in the valley. BC must protect this critical wildlife area by agreeing to make the lower one-third of the Flathead River Valley a National Park and establishing a Wildlife Management Area in the rest of the valley and adjoining habitat.
