Manage episode 420239476 series 2897323
In this episode, we talk with Blair Stringham from Utah's Wildlife Migration Initiative. He talks about wildlife tracking using GPS and RFID technology on over 28 species in the state, including fish, birds, deer, elk, and even mountain lions. If you have ever wondered how this works, this episode is for you.
Matt and I welcome Denise Peterson to the podcast in this episode. She is one of the newest URGC members and will be co-hosting the show with me once Matt bikes off into the sunset in mid-August—more to come on Matt’s retirement in the next episode.
