Conservation

[edit]

It was evaluated by NatureServe as globally secure (G5) in 1988. At the state/provincial level they evaluated populations in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Wyoming as "vulnerable" S3, with Montana, Quebec, and Wyoming as "apparently secure" S4. They evaluate populations in Labrador, Nunavut, and Manitoba as "vulnerable" S3, and the Yukon, Alaska, and Saskatchewan as "imperiled" S2. The only area they assessed the populations as "critically imperiled" S1 at that time was Newfoundland. They have not yet evaluated the rest of the natural range of the species.[1]
