Understanding wildlife activity along the Highway 3 Transportation Corridor

Miistakis in partnership with Nature Conservancy Canada has established a three year wildlife monitoring program along the Highway 3 Transportation Corridor in SW Alberta. The program aims to document wildlife activity at crossing structures along Highway 3 to better inform future road mitigation projects to help wildlife cross Highway 3 safely. There are a wonderful team of volunteers helping us check cameras and classify images using WildTrax (great tool built by Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute). We recently released a summary of year one results - take a look - there are some interesting results and of course amazing images of wildlife.
