Welcome to Lily Heinzel's Adventure Blogs! My very own passion project filled with unique and engaging content. Explore my site and all that I have to offer; perhaps my experiences will ignite your own passions as well.
I operated a radio receiver from ATS in a plane. There were two receiver antennas, one on each wing, and I switched between the receivers to determine which way to tell the pilot to fly. We used frequencies from collared wolves in an active research project lead by Dr. Shannon Berber-Meyer and Dr. Mech.
On my flight we spotted three uncollared wolves less than 3 miles from the airport.
Can you spot the three wolves?
