An often-reported species of North American primate has yet to be recognized by the scientific community. What is it? Any footage that has surfaced of this animal has been unconvincing: shaky camera, distant vantage point, and low light levels all contribute to the problem. Moreover, all evidence indicates that this creature is extremely elusive and strategically aware. The Falcon Project solution? An unmanned aerial vehicle, to be outfitted with cutting edge videography equipment (thermal imaging, long range telescopic lens, gyroscopic stabilization), and deployed over "hot spots" of reported activity. Welcome to the Falcon Project, a non-profit research endeavour. Find out more about this attempt to find North America's elusive large primate, and the Gifts supporting this endeavour.
It's your turn.

My If Only Wish - My Father's Wish to Come True
My father had many If Only dreams for our village in Kawartha Lakes, and although I'm not executor, of his will, I have voiced my opinions to the executor.
One of my father's if onlys was for a piece of swamp land around Opps Township to be used as an interpretive nature centre.
Why?
Why?
When my dad was young, his grandfather took him for walks and hikes in this swampy area, instilling a love of nature that lasted his entire life. For a young boy growing up in the depression in a house of women, these were the happiest days of his childhood.
When my father grew up he bought this piece of swampland - worthless to many, but priceless to Dad. When we were children,Dad would take us to visit this swamp each winter to bring home a real Christmas tree. These days were filled with fun and laughter as we gathered bits and pieces to make a bonfire to roast marshmallows. Exploring for tinder, we'd happen across animal tracks and Dad would get us to imagine the story behind the prints. It was one of the few days of the year that my father didn't work.
