Dragonfly Mercury Project
November 4, 2026 · Source: National Park Service
Join us to engage in a citizen science project where you’ll get to help NPS staff collect dragonfly larvae to be used for mercury analysis! Mercury is a global pollutant that, in large amounts, can be toxic to humans and wildlife. Data from this field study will help scientists and resource managers better understand and fight mercury contamination. Project requires wading in water. Space is limited. To register, please email LAKE_Volunteer_Coordinator@nps.gov .
