Students Discover: eMammal Camera Trap Stakeout

Ms. Armentrout will partner with Dr. Roland Kays and Dr. Stephanie Schuttler of NC State University and NC Museum of Natural Sciences on an eMammal research project that is helping citizen scientists survey the animals in their region with camera traps.
