Default looking for beaver carcasses

I'm looking for some beaver carcasses this winter, as many as I can get. The ATA has approached the ACA to do some wolverine research and we're getting it roling. the beaver will allow us to bait and capture wolverine images perhaps leading to somer captures and gps work. this is our chance to be the lead on some furbearer research so give me your dead beavers. Get ahold of me if you'd like to help.

Default Study Area

Brian, where is the location of the proposed study? I know some Biologists just picked up 50 beaver from a fur buyer for a wolverine study in Banff Park.

Is the ATA going to administrate the study? It would be good to post some more details on project methodology.

Thanks!

Default wolverine study

I appologize for intruding on confidential ACA study information. Good luck in getting beavers!

Brian, Why are you so secretive answering a simple polite question regarding this study? Nobody asked to "visit" the study area, which I imagine is on Public land.

Your last reponse generates suspicion and poor optics of a potential ACA sponsored study.

You mentioned ATA has approached ACA for this study. Is ACA sponsoring the project? There is no listing of a like sounding grant provided by the ACA in 2010/2011. As those who have reviewed the ACA's grant application process, Grants cannot be made retrospectively, that is for work started prior to the current fiscal year.

Isn't this a great response for a guy that holds the position he does with the ACA!!!

Just like the ATA there is no transparency whatsoever!!!

Were you not done "eating your cookie" Bildson?

I'm not sure if this comment is directed at my post. I'll assume that it is.

Brian,

Is the ACA sponsoring this ATA Wolverine study?
