Yukon Beringia Centre

ABOUT THE TALK:
 
Thick-billed murres are deep-diving, fish-eating, cliff-nesting seabirds that live most of their lives at sea in the Arctic and sub-Arctic. The Cape Parry colony, about which very little was known, is one of the smallest and most isolated and the only colony in the western Canadian Arctic (the Inuvialuit Settlement Region).

Dr. Rosana Paredes and Dr. Stephen Insley set out to fill in some of the basic gaps in what is known about these murres, such as where do they go when they are at sea especially during the winter, and are there any new risks to their survival caused by climate change and human activities.  
 
WHO ARE THE SPEAKERS?

Dr. Rosana Paredes, Principal of Pacific Rim Biological, is a behavioural ecologist with over two decades of experience leading scientific research in marine ecosystems. 
 
Dr. Stephen Insley is a Conservation Scientist and Director of the Wildlife Conservation Society Canada’s Arctic Program.
