Description
This wildlife status report looks at the white-winged scoter, a large-bodied sea duck which breeds on large, permanent wetlands and lakes from the southern prairies to the taiga plains of North America. Within Alberta, white-winged scoters have bred througout the Grassland, Parkland, Foothills, Boreal Forest and Canadian Shield natural regions, where suitable habitat exists. Available data suggest a long-term and widespread decline throughout the species' North American range. This report is part of the Alberta Wildlife Status Report series, which provides comprehensive summaries of selected wildlife species intended to be useful to those managing populations of species and their habitats, and to help identify species that may be formally designated as endangered or threatened.
