@chek.news: A deer eradication project that’ll begin in the winter of 2024 will restore native plants, according to officials. In two phases beginning in winter 2023, all deer on Sidney Island will be eradicated to restore native plants and ecosystems and improve the land’s vegetation. This is because European Fallow deer have been responsible for destroying the plants. #News #Sidney #SidneyIsland #BC #BritishColumbia #Canada #Tsawout #TsawoutFirstNation #Tsartlip #TsartlipFirstNation #WSANEC #ParksCanada #Deer #GulfIsland #GulfIslands #Pauquachin #PauquachinFirstNation #IslandsTrustConservancy
