Caught

Caught on camera
Remote cameras are one of the great inventions for wildlife monitoring.

Unfortunately, someone thought their needs were greater than the Recovery Program's.


One stolen remote camera (after this image was downloaded and the camera reinstated).

One less opportunity to learn how to manage this critically endangered bird.
