Found within high-elevation forests in Western Canada, whitebark pine seeds are nutritional foods for birds, squirrels and bears; their growth influences snowmelt, soil development and the habitat conditions of other plants. When the health of whitebark pine suffers, so too do the species and ecosystems they support. The species-at-risk is in decline across Banff, Jasper, Kootenay, Yoho, Mount Revelstoke, Glacier and Waterton Lakes national parks.\u00a0\nAfter a nationwide call for artists to paint this mural and a careful decision making process between BUMP and Parks Canada, Mackenzie Brown, an IndigiQueer Nehiyaw iskwew (Cree Woman) artist was selected to paint this mural.
