How Sensitive Habitats Can Survive Today's Recreation Boom
As more and more people seek outdoor fun and exercise, wildlife can be driven away from vital habitats and their roles in maintaining healthy ecosystems. In this informative and often entertaining video, Sue Morse describes what happens when we treat local forests more like playgrounds and gyms. As always, she illustrates her talk with first-hand stories and exceptional wildlife photography. Delivered live to an audience in Vermont, this topic has never been more timely for anyone wanting to maintain the health and integrity of their local forests. One viewer said, "Such an important and relevant topic to spotlight -- the need for recreation lovers to do their part to protect wild places."

This nose knows how much you care about wildlife
Now is the time of year when black bears have their incredibly flexible noses sniffing out nuts, bugs and other high-calorie foods. They're trying to pack on the pounds they need to get themselves and their yet-to-be-born cubs through the long winter’s nap.
Meanwhile, at Keeping Track, we’re busy feeding people’s curiosity about wildlife and inspiring them to protect the rich, secure habitats animals everywhere need. As the year winds down, please help us continue our work into next year with a donation today. Thank you!
