Souris & Area Branch of the PEI Wildlife Federation
Assistance - Education

Many knowledgeable and experienced people are members of the Souris Branch of the P.E.I. Wildlife Federation. They seek to educate the general public as to not only the activities the Branch is involved in, but also the ways of nature and the issues that surface from time to time.

Souris does not stand alone in P.E.I. with the management and enhancement of watersheds. Members of the Souris & Area Branch of the P.E.I. Wildlife Federation speak and contribute on a regular basis to other groups across the province. Individuals are involved in various committees and attend many meetings with others in the run of a year. Souris & Area Branch is a charter member of the P.E.I. Watershed Alliance.

The members are eager to share knowledge and interact with others for the betterment of all. Please view our photos and videos from various events, meetings and sessions the group has involved in.
