Our boreal toad project field season is quickly approaching. We're excited to see so many volunteer community scientists ready to get outside to gather important data on boreal toads and their habitats.

This information is crucial in assisting land managers and decision makers in planning for the conservation of boreal toad populations, which have seen large declines in recent years.

You're invited to join us for our virtual training, where you'll learn how to recognize all life stages of boreal toads and assess habitat conditions. Note that you have the option to participate independently, making it a great option to get involved in conservation while staying COVID-safe.

Training Info - Mark Your Calendar!

What: Learn how to survey for boreal toads and assess habitat conditions, how the summer survey calendar will work, and about opportunities to make field site visits to survey for boreal toads throughout Utah. Volunteers can either do independent surveys or join surveys led by scientists.

When: Thursday, May 6, 2021, 6:15-8:15pm
 
Where: This is an online training. We will be sending a Zoom link as the training approaches.

How: If you haven't already, sign up to receive communications on this project. You'll receive the training link and project updates throughout the season.

Notes: You will have the opportunity to ask questions during the web training and may leave and rejoin as needed. Please note that the training will be recorded so you can refer to it afterward.
