Mallard

The wetland habitats mallards depend on in Canada are at serious risk. We need immediate action to conserve wetlands - the natural areas where mallards and other waterfowl breed and raise their young - to ensure iconic Canadian moments like the one captured on this coin continue for years to come. In Canada, we lose 80 acres of wetlands every day. Without ongoing support from all Canadians, these essential areas may disappear. For 75 years, Ducks Unlimited Canada has been committed to wetland conservation, delivering science-based habitat projects as well as research, education and policy programs. You can continue the rich history of wetland conservation in Canada and help write a new chapter for waterfowl like the mallard.
