Answer: A. Swifts and hummingbirds are in the same order Apodiformes. The name “apodi” means “footless” in Greek, which suggests that their legs are small and have limited function.

If you have questions, please put them into the chat and Ron will answer them when he finishes. Thanks!

Ron's voice is breaking up. Perhaps he could speak more closely into his microphone.

Ron sounds like he's under water on my end, still

Sorry but he is sounding better here.

Are the red wolves that are Durham Museum of Life and Science able to also be released at some point?

Audio getting poor again

The audio problems are most likely related to the bandwidth of the rental place he is using in Oregon.

Thanks

You talk a lot about raccoons but what about number counts of opossums?

Would coyotes serve the same function locally as the red wolves in keeping down racoon populations? And also what type of crittercam have you found to be most reliable?

some great ideas on habitat restoration!

Great ideas on ways to help!

Thank you. Excellent information!

Thanks Ron, very interesting…..

Have you ever suspected opossum numbers are going down?

reconyx

are there no gray wolves in North Carolina?

Has anyone studied the genetic diversity of the 14 founders and the wild populations that have succeeded?

do you regularly radio tag/gps the wolves and have you tried to ride a small camera on a wolf? I saw it done on dogs on google>

you could get a grant from the national science foundation
