The wolf-moose project of Isle Royale needs your help.  We are looking for volunteers to join Research Expeditions to be conducted during spring and summer of 2009.  These expeditions are a vital aspect of the project’s field research and a truly unique opportunity to learn about the wolves and moose of Isle Royale.  All the details are at www.isleroyalewolf.org/participate.

During the past 20 years, more than 500 people have participated in these expeditions.  The experience is rich, and many have returned to participate in more than one expedition.

Success had been due, in part, to help from the Earthwatch Institute, a large organization that connects environmentally-oriented volunteers to projects in need of such support.  For reasons related to the economy, the Earthwatch Institute will not be assisting us in our effort to find volunteers.

If you are able and interested, please consider joining one of these expeditions.  It will be an unforgettable experience.  Even if you are unable to participate, please consider sharing this information with others who might be interested.
