Stalwart National Wildlife Area: Management Plan

Stalwart National Wildlife Area (NWA) is in Saskatchewan. It was designated in 1975 and covers 1,250 hectares. The NWA supports nearly 180 species of birds, including a significant concentration of migratory water birds. It provides important habitats in the Prairies ecozone. Habitats include large wetland complexes that support breeding for a variety of water birds in spring and summer, and staging for flocks of geese, ducks, sandhill-cranes, and shorebirds in spring and fall.

This management plan provides detailed information about Stalwart NWA, including:

• a description of the area
• its ecological resources
• the challenges and threats it faces
• habitat and wildlife management
• site access and permitted activities

All NWAs are protected and managed under the Canada Wildlife Act. This management plan pairs with protection provided for existing Aboriginal or treaty rights.
