Our Community Science Program

For Summer 2026, we will be seeking field volunteers. Are you interested in participating in carnivore conservation research? Would you be willing to volunteer independently, looking for and collecting DNA samples from rare carnivore scats as you hike across the Cascade’s high elevations, or help us investigate carnivore behavior from your desk at home? Our community science volunteers are an integral part to the success we have had in conservation actions for Cascades Carnivores! We couldn’t do this work without your generously donated time to support our projects. You can contribute to real-world science and conservation of wolverine, Cascade red fox, Canada lynx populations by clicking the link below to reach out to our team.

Creative Ways to Support Wildlife Conservation

Are you an artist interested in giving to the conservation community? Would you like to support carnivore conservation in the Pacific Northwest by helping with designs for stickers, shirts, hats, mugs and other creative ways to support our outreach. We are also seeking donations of artwork including illustrations and photography. Please reach out!

Employer Volunteer Incentives

Did you know that thousands of companies have volunteer incentive programs that support employee volunteering? These programs could offer volunteer grants (which match your volunteer time with donations to our organization) or volunteer PTO (which allows you to take paid time off to volunteer with our organization). Use the search tool below and see if your employer offers volunteer incentives!
