2008-2009 Wolf Ecology & Track Training Courses

Volunteer trackers are asked to complete a wolf ecology course first, then a track training course before signing up for the Wisconsin Volunteer Carnivore Tracking program. We strongly encourage trackers to take the thorough James Halfpenney track training course at some point. Timber Wolf Alliance (exit DNR) (TWA, 877-543-2085), Timber Wolf Information Network (exit DNR) (TWIN), Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute (SOEI, 715-682-1223), Treehaven (715-453-4106), Sandhill Outdoor Skills Center (715-884-6333), and Beaver Creek Reserve (715-877-2212) offer courses and/or have information on courses available. Please contact them for information or to register for their courses.
