Growth of a Program
Journey North began at the dawn of the internet. Early efforts to track wildlife migrations were done the "old-fashioned" way, via phone, letters, and emails. Online data entry systems were in their infancy. Experts in the field provided detailed information to Journey North staff, who then displayed this information on static maps and shared updates with the public through emailed news stories. Many educators and students, the early audience of these migration stories, benefited greatly from hearing directly from experts.
