Wildlife Health Tracker

Wildlife Health Tracker is a reporting tool that allows Canadians to report instances of sick and dead wildlife that they observe or would like to submit to the Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative. The tool is also used for several special projects that are undertaken with various federal, provincial, and territorial partners.

The Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative is a collection of highly qualified people within a cross-Canada network of partners and collaborators dedicated to wildlife health. Our Cooperative includes internationally renowned wildlife disease diagnosticians and researchers, experts in population health, skilled educators and experienced policy advisors. The CWHC is dedicated to generating knowledge needed to assess and manage wildlife health and working with others to ensure that knowledge gets put to use in a timely fashion.


We provide a Canada-wide perspective on wildlife health at the same time as helping to identify and assess emerging problems at a local level. The CWHC facilitates and supports teams, programs and partnerships needed to meet this goal. We build capacity through training the next generation of experts and advocating for strategic investment in wildlife health. Our research creates new wildlife health information and identifies ways to translate that knowledge into action. All of these activities work toward the goal of creating awareness of the importance of wildlife health and providing credible and trustworthy information to affect positive change at a local, national and international level.

Personal information, such as names and contact details are never shared with third parties unless there is a public health concern emerging from contact with sick or dead animals.
