Youth Outreach Program in Algonquin ParkIt was great to offer experiential learning to provide youth with the opportunity to explore scientific research outside the traditional classroom. Our program provided selected local groups both field and lab experiences, along with guest presentations from prominent researchers and naturalists. We are grateful for the facilities at the University of Waterloo Summit Centre for the Environment and the key staff from Algonquin Provincial Park who helped make this happen.

Killarney Provincial Park Citizen Science Survey
With support from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry's Species At Risk Stewardship Fund, we held citizen science survey days in Killarney Park. Following a talk and some brief training, people ventured onto the trails to collect scat samples that provide individual genotypes that allow us to refine the distribution of Algonquin wolves outside the park.
