Marc is a Registered Professional Biologist with over 30 years of experience and broad research interests that intersect sustainable development, terrestrial and marine ecology, and cumulative impacts of resource development. Much of Dr. d'Entremont's recent work has focused on the technical review of impacts from major industrial developments on First Nations' traditional land use and the regulatory affairs, environmental assessment legislation, and assessments of impacts to birds, wildlife, and terrestrial resources.
Experience
Through his professional experience, Marc has assessed the impacts of energy, oil and gas, and mineral developments on the mortality of wildlife species, including small and large mammals, avifauna, and amphibians. He has conducted numerous studies on the behaviour and movement of wildlife species, including bats, land birds, marine birds, ungulates, and furbearers in several regions of Canada (eastern, western, and northern). He currently works as a project manager and senior biologist with LGL Limited in Sidney, BC.
