Hello Fxfox,
Detailed records on Manitoba's animals, plants, and plant communities
at risk, together with their known location, are maintained in the
Biological Conservation Data system
of the Wildlife and Ecosystem Protection Branch.
http://web2.gov.mb.ca/conservation/cdc/
The Manitoba Conservation Data Centre (MBCDC) is a storehouse of
information on Manitoba?s biodiversity ? its plant and animal species,
as well as its natural plant communities.
The MBCDC has developed lists of plant and animal species and plant
communities, also known as elements of biodiversity, found in
Manitoba. It assigns each of these elements a conservation status
rank, based on how rare the species or community is in Manitoba, and
it then collects detailed information on where the provincially rare
elements have been found.
