Snapshot USA Survey Coordinator

Brigit is the survey coordinator for the Snapshot USA camera trapping project. This is an annual collaborative effort between scientists and communities at a variety of institutions to sample mammal populations with camera traps across the United States. As the coordinator, Brigit recruits new collaborators, conducts virtual trainings on protocol requirements, and ensures consistent data collection by monitoring incoming data on Wildlife Insights.
