Here are some websites we have found useful information on.
Please contact NWC through the comments email address if you experience any broken links or websites no longer exist.

 

animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/index.html

   A database that covers a wide range of animal species, but heavy on the mammals.  It is best to type in the specific animal you are looking for in their search engine since the taxonomy key is used throughout the site and can be slightly confusing. 

 

www.batcow.org/

    Looking for information on bats or directions on how to build a bat house.  This website is specific to bats of Wisconsin, but also have a great page listing other sites for bat information including the Bat Conservation International website.  The Bowmans are the founders of the Bat Conservation of Wisconsin and are available for programs.

 

www.birds.cornell.edu/AllAboutBirds/BirdGuide/

   Cornell Lab of Ornithology's online birding guide.  Gives basic information on just about every bird and plus songs of individual birds.  Can also find info on attracting birds to your backyard, latest happenings in the bird world, tips on buying binoculars and much more.

 

www.isleroyalewolf.org/

   Site to find information on the research being done on the wolf and moose relationship on this island.

 

www.kidwings.com

    A site where you can virtually dissect an owl pellet, many different types.  Also pages on birds in general and under teacher materials you can find informational coloring pages on some types of owls.

 

www.owlpages.com

   Anything and everything about owls plus great pictures and recordings of calls.

 

www.whatsthatbug.com

   This is a great site to help id that insect that you have no idea what it is.  You can send a question and picture by email to these folks, but they are often swamped with questions.  Suggested you take a look at their pictures (which are amazing) on the site first to id your bug.  Most pictures are close ups so you shouldn't have any problem identifying.  I have personally used this site quite a bit with great success.

 

www.wolf.org

   International Wolf Center.  A lot of wolf information.  Also have a webcam of their captive pack.
