If you need inspiration for your essay and your interests run toward science and research, why not check out a webinar about caribou? Better yet, why not check out a series of webinars about caribou? The ABMI’s Caribou Monitoring Unit has joined forces with the Regional Industry Caribou Collaboration (RICC) and National Boreal Caribou Knowledge Consortium to put on a regular webinar series exploring the latest research on caribou recovery in Canada. The webinars are live at 2 pm MDT on Tuesdays, but are also archived online so you can view them any time. Sign up here for any of the upcoming webinars—the next one is this coming Tuesday, May 26.
Until next time!
