Last one for today - how beautiful!

The NSMA environment team has been having a blast deploying and collecting wildlife cameras across the North Slave. Check out some of our favourites below:

We were surprised to see bison crossing this little creek and REALLY surprised to capture these two battling a few days later.

Captured our first lynx on December 6th and we were super excited about it!

A beautiful day for some fieldwork!
