The Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention Program at Fox-Wolf Watershed Alliance is dedicated to preventing the spread of AIS through outreach, monitoring, and region-wide coordination throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) are non-native species (e.g. plants, animals, pathogens) that cause or are likely to cause economic, environmental, or human harm and live in water or wetlands.
Request free AIS Outreach for your organization or event! Our AIS Coordinator has experience with school groups, clubs, library programs, and more! Your group will get up close and personal with some invasive species with our hands-on activities! Whether you need a presentation or an outreach table, Chris is experienced and ready to work with you!
Contact Chris at chris@fwwa.org or (920) 460-3674!

Transport pathways are how AIS have been introduced to and spread across Wisconsin. The number of pathways have continued to grow as new technologies allow for faster movement of goods and services than ever before in history.
