Biologists can work for the Canadian Forest Service, a division within Natural Resources Canada, where they conduct research to understand the impact of certain species on natural resources and traded goods like lumber and develop ways to combat common issues, as part of their core mandate. Collaborating closely with the provinces and territories to ensure our forests are sustainable and healthy, they provide science and policy expertise and advice on national forest sector issues. Playing a critical role in the advancement and transformation of the forest sector, biologists work in the field, office, and laboratory settings.
