Thaidene Nëné and the Łutsël K’é Dene First Nation are the subject of the season finale of BirdNote's new podcast, Threatened. Threatened offers sound-rich stories about the enduring connections between birds, people, and landscapes. Listen as community members Iris Catholique, Florence Catholique, Shonto Catholique, and Steve Nitah introduce the world to the Land of the Ancestors. In addition to allowing for the continuation of the Dënesųłıné way of life, the Thaidene Nëné Indigenous Protected Area, which was designated by the community in 2019 and which includes a national park reserve, a territorial protected area, and soon a wildlife conservation area, is that it conserves critical habitat for billions of birds. 6.5 million acres of critical habitat to be exact! You can listen to the episode here. You can also subscribe to Threatened on: Or through your favorite podcast app. Comments are closed.
