Camera Trap Grant Proposal

This is one of the pictures we took with a camera trap in Costa Rica.  

We had 10 camera traps to do our collections while we were at La Selva.  Three were borrowed from Conservation International and the rest belong to our group.  We are trying to bring that number back up as we start on the next phase of our project.  After learning TEAM Network protocols during our trip, we plan to set up a local study of Gopher Tortoise burrow habitation.  I have an open Donor's Choose Project to try to buy more traps.  Though I was lucky enough to get two more donations in August, the grant proposal expires in just 11 days.

Donor's Choose

Our proposal for a Donors Choose project has been posted!  We are hoping to collect several cameras to use for our project when we return from Costa Rica.  While we at LaSelva, we will be learning TEAM protocols for animal monitoring.  Then when we return, we will start collecting and analyzing data with our students.
