Adopt a Winter Wildlife Survey Route

 

We are also looking for volunteers willing to "adopt" a wildlife survey route for Winter 2024 & 2025. You do not need to be an expert tracker to take part, but rather willing to go out a few days after each fresh snowfall (or as often as possible) to walk along a road edge and note any wildlife crossings
