Wildlife Surveys and Monitoring
|
Our Experience
YUNI Environmental conducts wildlife baseline studies and monitoring through field surveys, radio-tagging, remote sensing, camera traps, DNA analysis and random plot sampling.
We coordinate species-at-risk surveys according to provincial or agency standards for project Environmental Impact Assessments.
We believe that for a project to be sustainable it should incorporate the needs of local wildlife populations regardless if they are commonly occurring or rare across the landscape.
