Documenting Wildlife Through Remote Cameras
Odiorne Point State Park
May of 2023, six game cameras were deployed in the northern portion of the park. The intent of the installation was to gain a better understanding of wildlife species’ presence and how they use the area. Camera 3 and 5 were moved to new locations shortly after being installed (now 7 and 8).
Although there was not enough data and too many factors unaccounted for to complete a site comparison, we were able to document a variety of species found at Odiorne Point State Park.
