The Willmore Biodiversity Research Project

The Willmore Biodiversity Research Project (2009-2012) deployed 60 cameras across a fully protected Mountain landscape to understand the effects of topography and natural mountain heterogeneity on mammal species ranging from flying squirrels to sheep to grizzly bears. Proxies for climate change, and landcovers expected to diminish under climate change scenarios, were important for many key species, including species-at-risk.
