Tyler Kaspar has been an Environmental Biologist for the 1854 Treaty Authority since October 2012. The 1854 Treaty Authority is an inter-tribal natural resource management organization that manages the off-reservation hunting, fishing and gathering rights of the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa and Bois Forte Band of Chippewa in the 1854 Ceded Territory (present day northeast MN). One of his tasks has been to help identify climate change issues in the 1854 Ceded Territory and ways to incorporate adaptation and mitigation strategies into our resource management plans. Previously, he had worked for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (2005-2010) as a Fisheries Technician and for the 1854 Treaty Authority (May-October 2012) as a Fish and Wildlife Technician where he had gained field experience working with the resources that may be affected by climate change.
