Rob Olson - President

Delta President Rob Olson obtained his undergraduate degree and his Master’s Degree in Natural Resources Management from the University of Manitoba. Rob conducted his Master’s research through Delta Waterfowl in the Pothole Region of western Manitoba, studying the influence of human disturbance and habitat characteristics on predation rates of waterfowl nests.

Following his graduate research, Rob worked in the environmental consulting field in western Canada conducting environmental assessments, boreal forest wildlife research, and endangered prairie wildlife surveys.

Mr. Olson is keenly aware of the challenges facing Prairie nesting waterfowl, in no small part to his experience growing up on a farm in Manitoba as well as a diverse prairie wildlife research background.
