Can wildlife be preserved and have economic development at the same time?
Using a map, explain how the railway made its way across the prairie from Winnipeg to Regina. Show the plans for the railway to travel up the east shore of Last Mountain Lake. Emphasize the role the people played in influencing the government to take action to make the nature reserve that is there today. Compare the Saskatchewan wildlife area with Momage in Jilin. Have interested students find out information about bird and animal species living in the wildlife areas. Make a list of bird species living in Saskatchewan wildlife areas and compare it to birds living in Momage Nature Reserve. (When comparing the Last Mountain Lake National Wildlife Area with the Momage wildlife area in China, point out that Momage is made up of several different habitat types. Ask students what they would expect to find if they started to compare different types in both wildlife areas (i.e., Momage would likely have a greater variety of wildlife because of the greater variety of habitats).
