Luckily we had already deployed remotely triggered cameras throughout Malcolm Knapp Research Forest, as well as the adjacent Golden Ears Provincial Park, to monitor how wildlife respond to recreational activity. Now, our research is honing in on understanding exactly how recreational activity—or a sudden lack of it—might affect where and when wildlife, such as this black bear, will come out to play.\n',

I am fitting GPS collars on adult cougars across southern British Columbia to learn about their elusive lives. I study where they go, what they eat, and whether human modifications to their habitat (e.g. roads, forest clearcutting) are impacting their behaviour and survival to inform conservation and management of the species.',
