Cache Creek Study
We’ve already collected THOUSANDS of images from trail cameras as part of our Neighbors to Nature study. We need you to help us comb through the thousands of images captured on our cameras and collect the data they provide. The information will then be analyzed by scientists at The Nature Conservancy. By devoting as little or as much of your time as you like, you’ll be providing critical data to the Bridger-Teton National Forest that will benefit both people and wildlife.
Wildlife Champions
Meet local scientists, tour guides, conservationists, and naturalists who are stewards of the international treasure that is the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
Success Stories
From charismatic grizzly bears to a world-record deer migration, innumerous conservation success stories add to Jackson’s uniquely wild legacy while stoking curiosity and inspiration.
Pitch Ins
Gain a more authentic connection to place by joining a crew to remove barbed-wire fences to make wildlife migrations easier, recording observations of wildlife captured on trail cameras, or participating in another volunteer opportunity.
