  • COSEWIC, the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada, met last week to consider the status of 16 wildlife species.
  • These included several that go unseen – those that are active in the night or that live underground or in hard-to-reach places.
  • Assessing secretive species underscores the importance of looking a little closer and learning all that we can to help them survive.
  • Several of the assessed species are not just hard to see but have actually gone unseen for decades.
