Amy’s team conducted a large-scale trail camera survey that is continuing to provide data not only on bobcats but a number of RI’s mammal species. Amy will share photos captured\, maps\, and stories from the field with good conversation and of course\, refreshments! \nThis event is located at Barlow Nature Preserve.
