Community Science Projects
MDIFW tracks where many of Maine’s priority wildlife species occur. Keeping our database current is challenging, especially for species that are uncommon, cryptic, or that live in more remote areas. So we rely on the Maine public’s passion for wildlife – community scientists – to help track these species.
