Plumas Unified School District/Plumas National Forest Storrie & Moonlight Fires Restoration Agreement:Restoration Agreement • March 11th, 2016
As part of on-going carnivore monitoring efforts, students from Plumas Unified School District continue as- sisting Plumas NF Wildlife Biologists. This time, they assisted in the far reaches of the Moonlight Fire Resto- ration Area. Classes helping in the effort include: Quincy HS Natural Resource and Biology Classes, Chester HS Biology Class, and Jim Beckwourth HS Science Class. The monitoring areas were established to deter- mine presence of the target species: American fisher, pacific marten, Sierra Nevada red fox, and wolverine. None were observed, but students were enthused to see what had been captured on film: black bear, spot- ted skunk, long-tailed weasel, coyote, and a red-tailed hawk. Students learned how to set up monitoring cameras, hang bait, capture data, and how a wildlife biologist determines the best location for observation (dense canopy and nearby streams).
