In this update we cover the results from our recent late-March capture session and take a first look at how fat levels change from year to year and between early and late winter. We also highlight our time at Science Week, held in Tsay Keh Dene in early March. This was a great four-day community event where we shared our research with the community, students at the local school got some hands-on learning about wild sheep, and we watched the WSSBC film – Transmission. Thank you Chu Cho Environmental and Chu Cho Industries for hosting and allowing us to attend! 

As always, I would like to thank you all for the continued support of this project. Your support, questions, and comments help build this project in a way that achieves our shared goals. 

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the work, please feel free to reach out to me or Morgan Anderson anytime.
