Mr. Speaker, the Member is asking a question of what species of wildlife have become threatened or become extinct in recent years. To my knowledge, between the time since the Government of the Northwest Territories has assumed responsibility for wildlife management in the Northwest Territories, and since we have begun working with local and regional wildlife management boards, none of the species have become extinct or threatened. In fact, certain species that were considered vulnerable, threatened, or on the verge of extinction, have come back and are well on the road to recovery. Thank you.
