Throughout September, a field crew will be working out of Hopedale to capture lesser geese as part of the Kaujivalliajut nillikulunnik project.
Some of these geese will be collared so that we can track their migration and find out where they are coming from.
Each collar that is deployed represents many hours of preparation, training, and effort by the project team.
Please report any collars that you recover as soon as possible, particularly if you find one in September so that we may have a chance to put the collar out again.
There is a reward for collars that are returned.
Contact information for found collars is located on the side of the device.
If you find a collar during the month of September, please instead call 709-896-6780 and let a staff member know that you have recovered a collar so that it may be returned quickly.
To report a band, submit it to reportband.gov or call 1-800-327-2263.
