Get involved in conservation in Ontario
Participate in these citizen science activities or volunteering opportunities on your next trip in Ontario. As a visitor, you can help protect the nature of these precious places.
Volunteer with the turtle trackers
Staff, scientists, partners and volunteers have installed eco-passages, protected and restored habitat, and even released turtle hatchlings to help increase turtle populations. Join the team effort and get firsthand experience monitoring turtle nests and collecting data.
Team up and clean up the shore
Make a difference in shoreline clean up! Pick up a cleanup kit and collect plastic waste and litter. Recording what you find will help Parks Canada identify and control sources of litter.
