Get Involved

The Wildlife and Ecosystem Protection Branch offers several opportunities for volunteers to get involved in wildlife surveying and monitoring. Select an activity that suits your interests, skills, and schedule, and phone or e-mail the contact person for the particular activity.

Piping Plover Recovery Program staff are in need of volunteers from June through to early August each year. Nests and chicks need to be monitored, particularly during the early morning and late evening hours, when predators are prone to strike.

If you're willing to assist with the guardian program, please call (204)945-5439 or (204)945-6817, or email the Wildlife and Ecosystem Protection Branch, to volunteer or for more information. Volunteers will be trained and provided with blaze orange t-shirt identifying you as a plover guardian. Volunteers will be required to keep watch for a number of hours per day on specific days; schedules will be set by the volunteer coordinator.
