star Be part of April 1–30! star
In April 2026, we invite you to celebrate Earth Day with us by helping Snapshot Wisconsin monitor wildlife from anywhere in the world! In this hands-on event, you’ll explore the trail camera photos. As a participant, you will be looking at images to spot and classify the animals: what kind, how many, whether they are adults or young. Your contributions support a NASA-supported research project that tracks changes in wildlife distributions and abundances over time—critical data that informs wildlife management and conservation decisions. You can learn how to participate in the project alongside your audience, or explore it ahead of time if you’d like. Learn more about the project at https://scistarter.org/snapshot-wisconsin This a beginner-friendly project recommended for participants Age 13+ and their families. The event will be shown on a screen, but feel free to bring along your own internet-enabled device, computer, or tablet.
