We would love to hear about it! The UW Urban Canid Project is using iNaturalist to monitor fox and coyote sightings around Madison, WI. Click here to get started with iNaturalist.

iNaturalist will prompt you to create a free account. You will then use the simple online map and datasheet to show where you saw the animal and enter information about your encounter. ou can even upload pictures of the animal if you are able to snap one! Your observations will help us to see “hotspots” for fox/coyote encounters and identify potential areas to radio-collar new animals.

Do you have a smartphone? Download the free iNaturalist smartphone app! It allows you to record observations in the field using GPS technology in your smartphone. Simply search “iNaturalist” in your app store or click a button below to get started.
