WDNR Offering Timber Wolf Tracking Clinic
People interested in learning more about gray wolf ecology can attend a Timber Wolf Ecology Clinic next month. The sessions will take place February 19-20 at the Sandhill Outdoor Skills Center.
Area biologists and volunteers from the Timber Wolf Information Network have teamed up to provide instruction on aspects of wolf ecology, including status, population biology and field study techniques. Saturday afternoon will be spent outdoors exploring wolf habitat.
Registration is limited to 25 people ages 12 and up on a first-come, first-served basis. Register by mailing in $80 per person by February 9. This fee includes instructional fees, transportation on Saturday afternoon, Saturday supper and Sunday lunch, and Saturday evening dorm use. The clinic runs from 9 a.m. Saturday to noon on Sunday.
Participants may stay in the center's dorm on Friday evening for a donation of $15 per person per night.
For more information or to take part in the program, call 715-884-6333 or 715-884-2437.
