Have you ever wondered what wild animals do when no one is watching?Scientists have been able to record the “private” moments of wildlife with leading-edge technology.Low-cost,dependable and small modern cameras are a big help.
Cameras placed in hard-to-reach places have taken videos of everything from small desert cats to larger snow-loving felines(猫科) in the northern Rocky Mountains.These cameras are important tools to learn new information on wildlife.
Some videos help scientists see the effects of climate change.For example,the desert animal javelina and the tree-loving coatimundi(长鼻浣熊) have been caught on cameras north of their normal home.This could mean global warming is enlarging their living area northward.
Researchers use cameras along with global positioning systems,or GPS.They attach GPS devices(设备)to mule deer and antelope(羚羊) in and around Yellowstone National Park.Then they can record their movements,or migrations(迁移).These cameras can be left in very rural(荒野的) areas for days,weeks or even months.They can provide information on how many animals are moving over a given period of time.
Rural video can show details about animal behavior,such as the calls made by migrating mule deer.Also,some cameras record animal life,showing everything from bison in Saskatchewan,Canada,to the underwater weed forest off California’s Channel Islands.

However,rural cameras have their problems too.Animals such as wolverines and bears sometimes attack them.Scientists do not know if the attacks are the results of anger or interest.Also,the devices have become popular tools to help hunters look for animals.Some people argue that it is unfair to use the cameras that way.Even with such problems,rural cameras are clearly an important scientific tool in researching wild animals.
