Friends of Wabakimi will launch the second year of the Wabakimi Boreal Caribou Citizen Monitoring Project this summer, a unique initiative that combines canoe tripping with citizen science to support conservation of at-risk boreal caribou in Northern Ontario's Wabakimi Area. Kate Prince will share captivating photos, videos, and firsthand accounts from volunteers, highlighting the activities and achievements of Year 1. Learn how you can contribute as a paddler-whether by joining a survey trip or sharing your own observations from personal canoe trips in Wabakimi. Whether you're a seasoned naturalist or new to wildlife monitoring, your participation can make a meaningful difference in protecting this species and its habitat. Join us to find out how you can help safeguard the future of boreal caribou in Wabakimi.
