Longtime member Al Munro introduced our guest speaker; Laura Caruso.  Laura is a 2nd year student in wildlife biology at Queen’s University.  In July she’ll be taking a volunteer research trip to South Africa to participate in Operation Wallacea. 

Operation Wallacea is a network of academics from European and North American universities, who design and implement biodiversity and conservation management research programmes. Research is supported by students who join the programme, to strengthen their CV or resume, gain course credit, or collect data for a dissertation or thesis.

Laura gave an interesting video presentation of the important research she will be doing on the trip and would welcome any assistance that our club might contribute to funds she has already raised from various projects to cover her costs.

She was thanked by Glenn Crawford
