In February we lost our dear friend and colleague, Aisha Uduman, to a rare form of brain cancer (diffuse midline glioma). Aisha was a wonderful human and inspired so many of us in so many ways. 1/5

She was one of the first @wildco_lab graduate students and completed innovative, interdisciplinary thesis research on the conservation of endangered Sri Lankan leopards, considering both the animals and the people living alongside them. 2/5

Aisha continued to pursue her passion for protecting wildlife and making the world a better place as a species at risk biologist with Fisheries and Oceans Canada. A testament to her impact is seen in the recent naming of a humpback whale in her honour: instagram.com/p/C7PJowhNZQ5/ 3/5

Aisha left us too soon, but lives on in our hearts & minds. I am comforted that her memory will be honoured through the Aisha S. Uduman Memorial Fund, celebrating her passion for wildlife & environment by providing support for other graduate students in @ubcforestry. 4/5

Check out this paper on wildlife activity during COVID, written by (current and former) members of WildCo along with >200 of their closest camera-trapping friends!

#NewPaper: Working with a huge team of 220 co-authors representing 102 projects in 21 countries, we analyzed data from 5400 #cameratraps to ask how #wildlife behaviours changed during the COVID-19 “anthropause” nature.com/articles/s4155… ..1/

Great read from @fennell_mitch! Mitchell's work used camera trap data to create spatiotemporal models and investigate potential interactions between human recreational activity and habitat use of eight different mammals in the region. Check it out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Need to set #cameratraps where there are no trees? No problem! @wildco_lab members got creative with some high elevation sets in alpine ecosystems this summer (📷: @cole_burton & Zoe Konanz) Who else has some "unconventional" camera sets to share? 👀
