When it comes to remote “camera traps” for capturing wildlife images, Drew Rush is world renowned. His patience and perseverance to find the perfect plant for his lens make him a true stand out in the field of nature photography. Earlier this season, we learned about this National Geographic award-winner's travels to Isle Royale in the fall of 2020, to stage cameras through the winter. In May 2021 he returned to the park to retrieve those memory cards. In this episode, Drew shares what his images have to tell about the health of the wolves, moose, and other animals on Lake Superior's most remote National Park.We would also like to welcome our new presenting partner, Café Imports, a Minneapolis-based importer of fine, specialty green coffees.
Wildlife researchers often use motion-sensing cameras, also known as camera traps, to study animals in the wild. However, these are usually positioned at ground level, leaving a diverse world of animals unexamined: those that dwell in the trees above. Camera traps set in trees in Rwanda's Nyungwe National Park captured 35 different mammal species over a 30-day period, including a rare Central African oyan, a small catlike mammal that had not previously been documented there. Mongabay Reports is a new series that shares evergreen articles like this from Mongabay.com, read by host Mike DiGirolamo.

Camera Traps by Lauren Collee This essay argues that the natural world, just like the city, is rife with surveillance. The militaristic, colonial history this surveillance belongs to is not simply waived by the fact that it operates in a forest. Technologies for extracting data about the earth reproduce these systems, and target human beings.

Trying to find wildlife can often be a grueling task. Hours spent outside searching, waiting & often relying on luck to see anything, let alone catch it on camera. For wildlife filmmaker & presenter Billy Heaney (@BillyHeaney), the difficulties have almost been removed. Specialising in camera traps, Billy knows how to get that wild & in the moment shot, without having to sit out & wait or disturbing the scene. In this episode he recounts the moment of a near miss with a Black Bear & his off the cuff trip to Jura in Scotland where he managed to see Grouse, Otters & even a Golden Eagle. Billy is also an ambassador for a marine charity organisation, Marine Life UK (MARINElife_UK). An organisation dedicated to preserving & conserving the UK's rich & delicate ocean life. From fish, sharks & inverts to whales, seals & birds, Billy tells us all about the diversity of marine life around the UK.

In this episode, we are told how bird collisions with vehicles may be affected by experience, we will learn about the brain of tarantulas and whether they show left-right asymmetry, and we will hear about baiting camera traps in the Amazon.

Scientists have used hidden cameras to study and explore as long as we've had them. Today's camera trap equipment lets professionals and Citizen Scientists in on the hidden habits of critters that are often so shy - especially mammal predators - that they're impossible to simply see. SNAP! These gizmos provide an "Animal Selfie" view of nature! Earthworms' guest Roland Kays has compiled pix from the files of camera trappers world-wide into the first book ever showing their best views of rare, endangered and also healthy species. Candid Creatures - How Camera Traps Reveal the Mysteries of Nature (2016, Johns Hopkins University Press) presents selections from millions of possible photos. We get to see individual species AND an exciting, important report of camera-trapping conservation research. You can participate in this vivid, accessible biodiversity work! Kays is collaborating with the Smithsonian as leader of the eMammal project, a volunteer effort to study the effects of hunting and hiking on wildlife. Citizen Science recruitment is on, for adults, families, teachers and students. Camera-trapping equipment is so common now, Wal-Mart sells it. Let Earthworms know if you get involved! Roland Kays heads the Biodiversity and Earth Observation Laboratory at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, and is a research associate professor at North Carolina State University. He is also the author of Mammals of North America, a field guide that has become a smart phone app. Music: Dirty Slide by Brian Curran - performed live at KDHX-St. Louis, December 2015.
Camera traps have enabled a fascinating view of animals in their native habitat. On this episode, Roland Kays discussed the creatures observed by camera traps.
The world is alive with animals that we virtually never glimpse with our own eyes. Many of the most fascinating and significant wildlife discoveries in recent years have been made thanks to the explosion of non-invasive, motion-sensitive cameras, known as camera traps. Not only do camera traps provide stunning images of endangered species, they've revolutionized the field of wildlife science, and elevated our understanding of the animals in our own backyards. Candid Creatures: How Camera Traps Reveal the Mysteries of is a new book by zoologist Roland Kays that tells the stories of the scientific discoveries that camera traps have enabled, such as the discovery of new species, and living proof of species thought to be extinct. With more than 600 remarkable photographs from researchers all over the globe, Candid Creatures is the first major book to reveal the secret lives of animals through this new technology. Tune in as we talk with Roland about his new book!
This week, animals! Go inside the largest lemur colony outside of Madagascar to see these feisty, furry primates up close. See how camera traps are keeping an eye on the wild things in our back yards. We dive deep off North Carolina's coast to meet the hungriest invasive species around. Finally we answer the question hours of YouTube can't: Why is that thing so cute!?

Zoologist Roland Kays wants to find out if animals change their behavior when humans move next door or hike trails. To find out, he sets up motion sensitive camera traps. By studying the time and place of captured images, he can look for trends in animal behavior and find out whether the animals are adjusting to the changes humans are making to the environment.
