Breeding conditions:
|
| An aerial survey in spring 2007 of the two mainland nesting areas of Lesser Snow Geese, with more detailed ground counts at Anderson River, indicated that although nesting was about a week later than usual, the nesting effort was good compared to many years in the late 1990s and early 2000s. However, as has happened frequently during the past decade, most nests at Anderson River were destroyed by Grizzly Bears, so production of young there will be low.
