  • Entomological Opportunities in Grasslands National Park – an Invitation
    Entomological opportunities in Grasslands National Park – an invitation Darcy C. Henderson Parks Canada, Western & Northern Service Center, 145 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg MB, R3B 0R9 Beginning in summer 2006, two large-scale management experiments will begin in Grasslands National Park, both of which require long-term monitoring of many biological and environmen- tal indicators. The carefully planned experiments are designed to support future park management, and provide data suitable for scientific publica- tion. While the Park selected a few key indicators for staff to monitor, there were a number of other A rare blue form of the red-legged grasshopper, Melanoplus femurrubrum, found in Grasslands National Park. (photo by D.L. Johnson) indicators for which funds and time were simply not available. Not wanting to waste an opportu- nity for public participation and a chance to gain valuable information, Grasslands National Park is inviting professional and amateur entomologists to get involved in monitoring arthropods under several grazing and fire treatments planned for both the West and East Blocks of the Park (see map below; for an overview of the Park go to http: //www.pc.gc.ca/pn-np/sk/grasslands/index_e.asp). In the West Block, a combination of pre- scribed fire with short-duration, high-intensity livestock grazing will be implemented on na- tive mixed prairie and exotic crested wheatgrass vegetation between 2006 and 2007. The Park is primarily interested in the seed production re- sponse, because past experience indicates thrips (Thysanoptera) and possibly other insects damage much native seed in the ungrazed and unburned Upland grasslands dominated by needle and thread parts of the Park.

  • PINES, PRAIRIES and CITY LIFE Travel Time: 21 Days, Arriving in Edmonton, Travelling Through Saskatchewan, and Departing from Calgary Distance: Approximately 2,516 Km
    PINES, PRAIRIES AND CITY LIFE Travel time: 21 days, arriving in Edmonton, travelling through Saskatchewan, and departing from Calgary Distance: approximately 2,516 km Saskatchewan is big – a sweeping 652,000 sq. km, in fact. Breathtaking landscapes feature throughout the province. In southern Saskatchewan, vast tracts of prairie grassland beneath endless blue sky create the perfect backdrop for a western-style ranch vacation. In northern Saskatchewan, the picture is completely different. Pristine lakes (numbering almost 100,000) are framed by lush boreal forest. Exciting outdoor adventures and warm hospitality make every visit to Saskatchewan a remarkable experience. Day 1: Arrive in Edmonton, Alberta Welcome to Edmonton, Alberta’s capital city. Pick up your rental car and explore Edmonton‘s downtown. End the day with a pleasant walk along the shore of the North Saskatchewan River. Day 2: Edmonton Enjoy your day in Edmonton. Explore the Royal Alberta Museum, which pulls back the curtain on the province’s landscapes and culture. The museum takes visitors on a remarkable journey from the time of prehistoric dinosaurs to ancient petroglyphs; through generations upon generations of First Nations Peoples to new beginnings on the windswept prairies. For shopping fans, a trip to West Edmonton Mall is an absolute must. North America’s largest shopping mall offers much to see and do. In addition to hundreds of shops, there is an indoor waterpark, amusement park and more than two dozen restaurants. Day 3: Drive to Makwa Lake Provincial Park (381 km) Leaving Edmonton, head east on the Trans-Canada Yellowhead Highway (No.16) to Lloydminster.
