The second episode of the Canadian Mountain Podcast features two projects that focus on protecting and reintroducing animal populations in Alberta, Canada. Hosted by Meg Wilcox, our guests discuss a collaborative research project between University of Alberta researchers and CP Rail that seeks to reduce wildlife mortalities on rail tracks through an early warning system, and the Bison Belong Project that reintroduced Bison to Banff National Park earlier in 2017.
Guests: Jonathan Backs, Colleen Cassidy St. Claire, Marie-Eve Merchand, Melanie Percy, Charlie Rabbit, Hank Snow, and William Snow.
