F.A.U.N.A. Camera

Footage of Animals Using Natural Areas (F.A.U.N.A.)

F.A.U.N.A. CAMERA is a citizen science project organised and run by the members of the Central North Field Naturalist group.

Using motion sensor wildlife cameras placed in public reserves and private areas our goal is to capture footage of animals using these natural areas. Video footage is used to identify the animals to species level and also capture natural behaviour.

The two main reasons we use motion sensor cameras is because they are non invasive and autonomous.

Members can borrow the cameras to help with a like-minded community group project or on their own property to gather a species list. Training on how to use and deploy the camera is also offered.

The following are links to years of deployment which then provide access to videos at specific locations and dates.
