Gaea Conservation Network Incorporated (GCN) is launching Community-Anchored Monitoring for Priority Species in and Around Grenada’s Protected Areas, a 12-month project building national baseline data for the critically endangered Grenada Dove, the critically endangered Grenada Frog, and key game species including Armadillo, Manicou, Mona Monkey, and Iguana...
Data gathered across all 3 components will be analysed by GCN and shared with the Forestry Division. For the Grenada Dove, the work updates what is known about the species and builds community involvement in ongoing monitoring. For the Grenada Frog, it builds on existing research by the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee by creating a pathway for community participation and sustained monitoring. For game species, the information gathered with hunters will give Forestry a clearer picture of harvest pressure.
