Help Peer Into the Forests of Vietnam's Pu Mat National Park
Pu Mat National Park in the Annamite Mountains is one of the most important sites for conservation in Vietnam, in particular for a host of mammal species that have recently captured the imagination of biologists and writers alike, including the wild cow-like Critically Endangered Saola, the Annamite-striped Rabbit and the Critically Endangered Large-antlered Muntjac.
As these populations plummet at the hands of indiscriminate poaching using snares, we aim to conduct the first-ever comprehensive camera-trap assessment of ground-dwelling species across the park, which will inform our targeted and effective anti-poaching strategy.
