SUMMARY:Animal Tracking Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us in learning to notice and identify the tracks & other signs of wildlife to help protect and monitor our watersheds!\nTracking is an important method for monitoring the impacts of the work that is starting to clear for the reroute of line 5. We are much more likely to see the tracks and sign of an animal who depends on ecosystems and waterways crossed by the reroute than we are to see the actual animal. This gathering is an opportunity get comfortable noticing and documenting tracks and can help prepare folks to monitor reroute activities and submit pictures of tracks for expert support in identifying the tracks. \nThe event will be held in the trails around the Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center.

SUMMARY:Bad River Watershed Bioblitz
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the month of August in observing as many species in the Bad River Watershed as we can! We are especially interested in surveying for threatened\, endangered\, and nonlocal beings. We are most interested in observations of these species along waterways *one quarter mile upstream* and *two miles downstream* of the proposed reroute. However\, we are not looking to observe species on any Bad River Reservation lands. \nTo submit observations\, check out our iNaturalist event\, where you can also see a map of the area of interest. For checking locations\, see https://watchline5.com/wisconsin-reroute/ for a downloadable map of the proposed reroute and access roads. If surveying by waterways\, ensure you are entering along public roads and staying within the current to avoid trespassing on private properties. \nEmail tne.search2@proton.me for more info or to get connected with surveying opportunities! See https://watchline5.com/endangered-and-threatened-species-survey/ for more info.

SUMMARY:Species Surveying & Community Float
DESCRIPTION:Last month’s gathering included learning about how to help survey the proposed Line 5 reroute areas for threatened\, endangered\, and non-native species. As a follow-up\, some folks are organizing a Community Float event on Saturday\, July 26th on one of the waterways that would be affected by the reroute project within the Bad River watershed. There will also be fliers for going door-to-door canvassing to folks who live along the construction corridor and along the rivers we hope to float survey on. If anyone is interested in helping out with that or learning more/attending the float event\, contact: tne.search@proton.me \n
