On assignment to find out about species at risk in the boreal forest, Jack and Tabitha board the Polar Bear Express and head north to Moosonee. Jack has read about a wolverine sighting in the area and has made plans to meet a research scientist to learn more about this elusive northern predator. He thinks the wolverine will be the perfect star for his horror movie, but is not sure that he will live to tell the tale! Tabitha meanwhile ventures into the pristine wilderness around the Northern French River to talk with Cree researchers about their Lake sturgeon recovery program. Inspired, and wanting to know more, she travels south to Lake St. Clair, where she’s been invited to get more hands-on with this fascinating prehistoric fish.

Sharing Our Habitat includes a video series and lessons for grades 4 to 11, on species at risk (SAR) in southern Ontario. Each episode features our young investigators learning about a particular ecosystem and the species that rely on it. They formulate key questions, then interview species experts, Aboriginal elders, landowners, and volunteers, on why species are at risk, and why people should care and what they can do. Each episode also features the hosts assisting with a recovery project. Lesson plans and Our Incredible World website available under Additional Info tag.
