Description
The piping plover is listed as "endangered" under Alberta's Wildlife Act, and in most other jurisdictions in North America. Poor productivity as a result of predation of eggs and chicks has been identified as the greatest source of reproductive failure for piping plovers in Alberta. The Alberta Piping Plover Recovery Plan identified a need for increased predator management in order to boost reproductive success. This report was produced in order to research and compile information on the various tools, techniques and tactics used to control predators thought to be a threat to piping plover reproductive success. This information was compiled through searches of a variety of bibliographic databases and Internet resources.
