TARAS is pleased to have been able to present the Miistakis Institute with a grant to support the purchase of Hobbs Active Light Trigger camera systems to monitor native amphibian and reptile use of road tunnels intended to provide habitat connectivity. Results will inform native species conservation efforts and improve future road infrastructure for amphibian and reptiles. We are so excited to see what comes of it!
