The Manitoba Habitat Conservancy is focused on conserving, restoring and enhancing fish and wildlife habitat and populations in Manitoba. As Manitoba's Homegrown Conservation agency, MHHC has a mandate to work citizens of Manitoba to implement voluntary conservation works on private lands. The primary tool MHC uses to support Manitoba's fish and wildlife populations is the Conservation Agreement (i.e. easement), which perpetually protects valuable habitat in Manitoba. To date, MHC has permanently conserved 200,000 acres (80,000 hectares) of private lands. Through term programming such as habitat enhancement and restoration, MHC has influenced a further 130,000 acres (52,500 hectares). MHC continues to implement habitat conservation programing for species at risk, watershed health, aquatic habitats, wetlands and waterfowl.
