Have you ever wondered where caribou got their distinctive name? Are you curious about how they survive in the freezing cold climate of the permafrost peatlands? Maybe the words “caribou” and “permafrost” are brand new to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, we’ve got great news for you! This year, Earth Rangers is partnering with Yifeng Wang, a geography researcher from Queen’s University. She studies the permafrost peatlands that caribou call home. She wants to know how climate change is affecting the permafrost and how we can preserve this beautiful ecosystem for generations of caribou to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is your chance to ask Yifeng anything about the important work she does! Do you want to know what caribou do with their big antlers? Are you wondering how the ground stays permanently frozen in the permafrost peatlands? Maybe you want to know how Yifeng decided to study geography – or how she stays warm when she’s working in the Arctic circle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever you want to know, sound off in the comments! We’ll send your questions to Yifeng, and she’ll answer three to five of her favorites. Stay tuned on the Wild Wire blog for her responses, and for more chances to ask our researchers questions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, head over to the Earth Rangers Shop<\/a> to purchase your own caribou adoption kit and support Yifeng’s work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
