Animals  documented:

Mt. Hood National Forest is home to abundant and diverse wildlife. The Wolverine Tracking Project is primarily interested in documenting four native carnivores: gray wolf, Sierra Nevada red fox, Pacific marten, and wolverine - the last of whom we are monitoring for their return to the mountain. We also document many mammals, ground birds, and birds of prey that visit our camera sites and are encountered on our tracking and scat surveys.
