“The conservancy has continued its involvement in several statewide projects and has been making inroads with collaborators to better serve wildlife. Our "institute for rare mammals studies" (irms) has been focusing on tracking pine martens and fishers in the lower peninsula, two weasel species that were previously eliminated through hunting and habitat loss but have been making a comeback. We are monitoring game cameras statewide, including at camp grayling, where we have detected multiple martens with the goal of better understanding their habitat needs. We have also been expanding our educational program: "becoming outdoor smart in summer" by offering multiple camp sessions per summer for young and upcoming wilderness experts. By hosting field trips, classes, demonstrations, and workshops covering topics including wetland conservation, vernal pools, frog diversity, mushroom and fungi identification, foraging, and invasive species management using fire, goats, and other tools at the bengel wildlife center, we have become an educational leader for children and adults in wildlife management. Recently, our director attended a multi-day workshop to gain the title of "certified prescribed burn manager- and will use these credentials to apply fires to improve plant diversity and habitat value not only at the bwc but statewide. We remain committed to restoring wildlife habitat and teaching others to do the same.”
