The Spring 2022 Cedar Creek Wildlife Survey is coming up on Saturday, June 4. We hope you can join us.


The Cedar Creek Wildlife Survey is a joint venture between the Minnesota Wildlife Tracking Project and the University of Minnesota's Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve. It is a unique opportunity to improve your tracking skills, connect with nature, and help Cedar Creek scientists learn about the wildlife living on their property. You can read about our Winter 2022 survey here.


The program is free, but registration is required.


Our Spring Survey will be an all day affair. We will head out in teams to survey the roads and trails for animal tracks and sign, then come back in to share our discoveries with one another. Each team will be led by an experienced wildlife tracker, certified in Track & Sign identification. In past surveys, our teams have identified the tracks and sign of more than 30 species of mammals including southern flying squirrel, fisher, black bear and grey wolf. Here is the schedule for the day:


9:00am Gathering at Lindeman Center

9:30am Tracking teams leave for the field

~3:00pm Return from the field for sharing, mapping and debriefing

4:30pm Complete

We look forward to getting back out in the field with you.
