- Edéhzhíe Protected Area (Dene for source waters, anglicized as "Edehzhie Protected Area") is an Indigenous Protected and Conserved Area in the Dehcho Region, the southwestern part of the Northwest Territories, and was established in 2018. Edéhzhíe covers 14,218 km2 and contains important habitat within its lakes, wetlands, and boreal forest. The Indigenous Protected and Conserved Area is culturally significant for the Dehcho and Tłįchǫ Dene peoples, and hosts trails and harvesting areas in addition to traditional sites for hunting, fishing, and trapping. Headwaters for much of the Dehcho are supplied from the Edéhzhíe Protected Area, including the Willowlake, Horn, and Rabbitskin Rivers that are sourced from the Horn Plateau. Threatened species and species at risk supported by the protected area include boreal woodland caribou, wood bison, wolverine, peregrine falcon, short-eared owl, and olive-sided flycatcher. Mills Lake within Edéhzhíe is an International Biological Program Site that is visited by as many as 50,000 lesser snow geese and 5,000 tundra swan during migration periods. On-the-land guardians with the Dehcho K’éhodi (Dene for taking care of the Dehcho) Stewardship Program monitor and co-manage the protected area alongside the Edéhzhíe Management Board and Canadian Wildlife Service.
