Une immigration de source externe est un processus par lequel une espèce sauvage peut se déplacer dans son aire de répartition, de telle sorte que la diminution d'une population ou la possibilité que l'espèce disparaisse au Canada soient atténuées. Dans le cas des espèces sauvages dont l'aire de répartition d'une espèce s'étend de part et d'autre d'une frontière internationale du Canada ou d'une frontière que le Canada partage avec un autre pays, donnez la probabilité que la dispersion de la population étrangère repeuple la population canadienne si celle-ci venait à disparaître ou à connaître un déclin. 1, record 8, French, - immigration%20de%20source%20externe
