Léna Mazuryk from Laval and Leanna Stackhouse from UBC are now analyzing the data to understand the effects on vegetation, temperature, and more.
A big thank-you to Chad Alexis and Josiah Clow of Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation for sharing their expertise with the team!

We and our partners have been making steady progress on extracting more grizzly bear population information from hair samples. Dr. Darío Fernández-Bellon presented where the team is at and how we're going to keep pushing it further!

We're enjoying the conversations in the Exhibit Hall! Come by in the next half hour for that good pre-supper viewing of deer mortality photos.

That was a big day of talks, but don't leave yet – we have a fun poster in the Exhibit Hall and would love to chat about what we're learning about deer cause of death in caribou ranges! #TWS2025

We studied 117 harvest blocks to understand what factors influence bear, wolf, and other carnivore use of these landscape features. Caribou Program lead Dr. @lfinnegal.bsky.social presented results. #TWS2025

Camera traps have a lot of advantages in ecology research, but it's time-consuming to classify images. Dr. Rebecca Viejou presented on how we can use AI to greatly improve efficiency without compromising accuracy. #TWS2025
