Jenna McGuire, who currently works for Parks Canada, is an ecologist. Educator and scientific illustrator and will discuss how Ontario is filled with botanical wonders, including many rare and at risk species. During this talk we will explore what contributes to plan rarity, key species at risk, conservation issues and how naturalists like us can play a big role in helping these incredible species.
