PROJECTS
Mountain Goat Molt Project
2018 - 2020
Developed and led a participatory science project on the coat molt patterns and phenology of mountain goats. Related their winter coat shedding to elevation and latitude across their range, from Colorado to Alaska and the Yukon. Used remote camera-trapping to fill a photo gap at their northern range extent (all photos in the above slideshow from the southern Yukon, summer 2018).
