North America: Bighorn Concern
 
NGOs are mounting a campaign to resist moves to weaken the protected area status of the Bighorn Wildland in western Alberta, Canada. This area is wanted by industy for petroleum exploration and logging but NGOs consider it one of the last remaining intact wilderness areas in the region and are seeking to expand the protected area to include the boreal forests of the Bighorn foothills.
