Project seeks volunteers in search of Maine wolves

By Kevin Miller
BDN Staff

HOLDEN, Maine — Wanted: a few dozen individuals willing to spend a night howling like wolves in Maine’s North Woods, and who won’t be scared off if they get a response.

The Wolf Inquiry Project, a collaboration of several conservation groups and biologists with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, plans to conduct “howling surveys” in select spots this summer in hopes of discovering whether wolves are resettling in Maine.

The project’s coordinators will hold a training and information session for interested volunteers from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday, May 30, at the Fields Pond Audubon Center in Holden.

The methodology to be used in the surveys is fairly simple: Go out into the woods at night, howl like a wolf (or coyote, for that matter) and record the results, if there are any. After several minutes, the pair of volunteers will head to the next location and repeat the process.

1. I like howling at the moon.
Apparently the neighbors don't like when I do it. At least that's what the cops say every time they show up.
