Wildlife Ecology E-Journal: Friday, May 23, 2003

 Dr. Kevin Crooks of UW-Madison teaches students how to detect carnivores and other large mammals using a sand track station method.

Students practice setting up a track station, complete with smelly scent... 


...and voila! 


Kevin also shows students how to use remotely-triggered cameras as another method for detecting animals. 

Betsy, Katie, Pam, Sarah, and Angela capture the first raccoon! 


A common visitor at many mammal traps, Peromyscus sp. (deer mouse or white-footed mouse).
