A webcast highlighting some of the state’s rarest wildlife.
Teri Lysak, Wolverine Tracking Project Coordinator at Cascadia Wild, introduces you to a unique community science effort on the Mt Hood National Forest, where volunteers help document evidence of Oregon’s most elusive carnivores. Participants collect data on species such as the Sierra Nevada red fox, Pacific marten, wolves, and the wolverine. The project brings people into the field, teaches valuable skills, and provides crucial information that helps land managers protect these animals and the habitat they rely on.
Learn how community science works on the ground, what recent findings show, and why species like the Sierra Nevada red fox and the wolverine are important parts of a healthy ecosystem.
This event also highlights Oregon Wild’s work in the 2026 Oregon legislative session to secure dedicated conservation funding for imperiled fish and wildlife. Many of the species Cascadia Wild tracks depend on stronger protections and long-term investment. This webcast will help connect the science with the policy decisions that shape Oregon’s future.
Whether you love wildlife, are curious about community science, or want to get involved in protecting Oregon’s natural heritage, this is a conversation you will not want to miss.
