Winter Field Work Update

This March, Four Rivers conducted field research in both Webequie and Constance Lake First Nations. To aid in gathering data on wolves in the area, 40 trail cameras were deployed near Webequie, while 20 cameras were deployed around Constance Lake.  

Thanks to the amazing community guides whose experience and knowledge of the land helped inform the invaluable data collection to help address community environmental priorities in the future!
