Anyone know who this is? This amphibian was spotted by the TRACKS team in Minden Ontario- traditional territory of the Michi Saagiig and Chippewa Nations. Do you think it's a frog (omagakii) or a toad (obiigomakakii)?

Who's that? Adults are on the wing from mid-June to mid-July, which is when this moth was spotted. This moth is part of the Phachysphnx Genus. The larvae of the moth love to feed on poplar, willow and cottonwood species.

Learn Anishinaabemowin with TRACKS. Dewe'igan, meaning drum. For First Nations Peoples, the drum represents Mother Earth and her universal heartbeat. To pay respect to the heartbeat of mother earth, a drum was made.
