This free lecture, given by Miroslava Munguia Ramos of the Santa Monica Mountains Fund, took place on Wednesday, December 11, 2024. In this free lecture, Miroslava discussed the research done after the Woolsey fire to investigate the fire's impacts and long-lasting effects on the ecosystem and its inhabitants. Miroslava explained that with the use of wildlife camera traps, biologists have gained a better sense of what lives, breathes, and zooms through the Santa Monica Mountains and nearby mountain ranges. Miroslava started by highlighting the scope of this research, how researchers capture these wildlife images, and provided insight on the massive collaborative effort driven by park staff, partner agencies, and volunteers to maintain this project. In the latter part of the lecture, Miroslava highlighted select images from the research data including images of wildlife behavior rarely seen in-person, photos of collared animals, and site comparisons over the years.
