Great to see more of this type info coming to North Coast. Went to good lecture by Greta Wengert at Eureka zoo last year. I’ve been doing “citizen science” with a dozen + trail cams for 3 yrs now in Trinidad with some jaw dropping results. Very much look forward to learning more, and touching base with like minded peeps. ~Ron Dean
