Nocturnal Canyon Visitors
This footage, taken from late October to early November 2014, was part of a senior biology thesis by Jacob Kraus ’15 that measured the distribution and diversity of small mammal communities throughout the Reed College Canyon. Nutria, raccoons, opposum, and beavers can be seen in the video, as well as dam being built.
Thanks to Zac Perry and the Canyon Crew for helping install the camera trap and Dr. Robert Kaplan for supervising the thesis project.
