My Career as a Wildlife Ecologist: From Counting Poop to Protecting Caribou with Kim Dawe

Kim is a wildlife ecologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service of Environment and Climate Change Canada. Her career in science has taken her into the Canadian wilderness to count poop on the ground, record animal locations by helicopter and Cessna airplanes, and capture pictures of wildlife via cameras attached to trees. Now she uses all that experience to help threatened caribou populations by contributing to the strategy for conservation and recovery in Canada.
