Keeping Track® is a non-profit organization founded in 1994 by Susan C. Morse, a nationally known naturalist, out of her concern that development in all its forms often unwittingly harms, isolates and even eliminates habitat critical to local biodiversity and broad-scale ecological health.Compounding the problem, many of those responsible for protecting habitat lack the resources needed to "keep track" of the status of wildlife and habitat in their assigned areas. Sue started Keeping Track to fulfill that need. Through our programs, whole communities can become engaged in monitoring potential habitats and threatened regions. Our adult and youth training programs are designed to both inspire community volunteers as well as turn them into practitioners of a science-based field study methodology.The concept is simple: Train people in the scientific protocols needed to detect, interpret, record and monitor wildlife tracks and sign so they can be used to gauge the status of wildlife and habitat in their communities. Training is available to all – professional biologists, citizen-scientist volunteers, land trust leaders, conservation planners and anyone else with an interest in searching local forests and fields for evidence to better inform land use decisions.
