This template has been provided to assist developers in preparing a basic Wildlife Management and Monitoring Plan (WMMP) that can outline how impacts to wildlife and wildlife habitat will be mitigated and monitored.
This screening questionnaire is a tool to be used by the developer to determine the potential impacts of their developments on wildlife and wildlife habitat to inform decisions about mitigations.
This document details the expectations regarding the required sections for a full-scale Tier 3 WMMP. Specific sections required for Tier 1 and 2 WMMPs are described in the WMMP Process and Content Guidelines. A template for a Tier 1 WMMP is also provided.

The Forest Management Division (FMD) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (ENR) is responsible for monitoring forest health conditions across the NWT to ensure the forest has the capacity for renewal after a wide range of disturbances, and is able to retain its ecological resiliency while meeting the current and future needs of NWT residents.
Movements of barren-ground caribou have been tracked by the Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) since 1996 using satellite radio collars. Collars provide key information on caribou throughout the year.
Fire is a natural and important part of the boreal forest ecosystem. Northern plants and animals have adapted to the cycles of fire and regrowth, and barren-ground caribou have co-existed with the effects of forest fires on their winter range for thousands of years.
Les incendies sont un élément normal et important de l’écosystème de la forêt boréale. La flore et la faune nordiques se sont adaptées au cycle de la destruction par le feu et de la repousse, et, depuis des milliers d’années, les caribous de la toundra composent avec les répercussions des feux de forêt sur leur aire d’hivernage.
Le gouvernement des Territoires du Nord-Ouest (GTNO) suit les déplacements du caribou de la toundra depuis 1996 au moyen de colliers émetteurs. Les colliers fournissent des renseignements importants sur le caribou tout au long de l’année.
Newsletter for the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (ENR) explaining how they conducts annual aerial surveys in areas occupied by mature spruce forests as a priority, mostly because of their significance as a preferred host for the most serious insect pest in the NWT.
The Knowledge Agenda is a tool that will be used by GNWT leaders, planners, policy-makers and researchers, in conjunction with GNWT legislation, policies, strategies and plans to advance the strategic goals of government and ultimately improve the quality of information used to make decisions in the Territory.
