Work in progress: The survey and map are active, and we are continuing to add detail, improve both tools, and develop new pages about wildlife disease.

Wildlife Epidemiology

Protect Ohio's Wildlife

We are tracking the spread of wildlife diseases across Ohio. Join our mission to safeguard the health of our local ecosystems and the species that call our forests home.

OHIO REAL-TIME TRACKING

Protecting Ohio's Wildlife Health

We empower Ohio citizens to be active participants in wildlife health monitoring. By tracking and reporting symptoms, we create a comprehensive digital network that helps us identify emerging threats before they spread.

Our process is simple: report sightings through our interactive survey. This data is analyzed by our team to map disease patterns and inform conservation strategies that safeguard Ohio's biodiversity for future generations.

How to Help

Learn to recognize signs of illness such as lethargy, abnormal discharge, or visible lesions in Ohio's native wildlife populations.

Record precise locations and timestamps of wildlife sightings using our interactive tracking map to ensure data accuracy.
