The Chilcotin Ark is a complex 2.5 million hectare ecosystem located on the lee side of the Coast Range Mountains. This region is of high ecological value on an international scale due to its high biodiversity and interconnectedness. The Chilcotin Ark is an optimal refuge for plants and animals in times of climate change. 13 of the 16 biogeoclimatic zones of British Columbia are present in the Chilcotin Ark and therefore a high biodiversity is found throughout the area. The Chilcotin Ark is home to 11 of the 29 big game species of North America.
