We are very proud to host this tower (the first within the City of Saskatoon!) and we look forward to seeing which animals make their way out to the park! 🤩
Huge thx to Gavin and Dan, and the whole team at Birds Canada for the recent installation of a Motus radio-telemetry tower at Wanuskewin.
The tower will receive a notification whenever a tagged animal comes to visit, and will provide researchers with valuable info about animal movements. 🦅🦇🪰
