Thank You! Gracias! Merci Beaucoup! Domo Arigato! Asante! Obrigado! A huge shout-out and Thank You to the donors helping to make the start-up funding for this project possible. You are so appreciated! 
 
"Dude...we're funded...Woo Hoo!"
The next step will be purchasing the wildlife cameras - the Browning Spec Ops Elite HP5 has been chosen for the start-up units to be purchased directly from Browning. They have graciously offered to provide a discount which would result in buying more than the initial 15 wildlife cameras we originally expected. Yay!!! Here we go....

About This Project

The California Ringtail Project: capturing ringtails on wildlife cameras towards conservation efforts

The ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) is a protected mammal species in California yet there is a significant lack of information about ringtails here and elsewhere. This project will utilize wildlife cameras to provide photographic evidence of ringtail occurrences to help better understand the distribution of ringtails in California. This information is critical in helping biologists make decisions ensuring that ringtail populations continue to thrive throughout the state.
