Take Action
Eastern Loggerhead Shrikes
Wildlife Preservation Canada is colour marking the critically endangered Eastern Loggerhead Shrikes. Part of the recovery program underway for this species includes a captive breeding and release program. To maximise the chances of spotting the released shrikes, their breasts are coloured. Colours that may be used include green, blue and purple.

If you see a shrike with a coloured breast, please report it to Wildlife Preservation Canada by email or 519-836-9314.

Ontario Herpetofaunal Atlas
Ontario Nature, in partnership with various groups, has begun work on a new Ontario Herpetofaunal Atlas Program. Volunteers are needed to submit observations of reptiles and amphibians found throughout Ontario. Help support this project by submitting your sightings. Get more information here.
Ontario Turtle Tally
Report your turtle sightings by entering your observations into the Turtle Tally database. Information collected will be submitted to the Natural Heritage Information Centre and used to learn more about turtle distributions in Ontario.
Wasp Watchers Needed
Volunteers are needed to monitor a ground-nesting wasp Cerceris fumipennis that preys on emerald ash borers. Its activity can indicate whether the emerald ash borer has arrived in the vicinity. How to become a wasp watcher.
