Animal Field Guide

Discover the animals of the Flathead Reservation with an app designed to bring together natural history, cultural knowledge, and community observations. Whether you are a student, educator, or visitor, the Animal Field Guide helps you connect more deeply with the land and wildlife around you.

Browse a rich collection of local animals, from fish and amphibians to birds and mammals. Each species entry includes photos, identifying features, and natural history details. Many animals also feature audio recordings of calls and songs, as well as cultural insights and names in Salish and Kootenai.

The Animal Field Guide is more than just a reference tool. You can record your own wildlife observations, upload photos, and share notes from the field. Each observation is tied to location data, helping to build a clearer picture of where animals are found across the reservation. You can also explore an activity feed to see what others are discovering. Designed for use in the field, the app allows observations offline so you can explore even in areas with limited service.
