Banner Photo: Makino River setup l to r: camera, A24 trap, S<\/em>teve Allen SA2 trap, an AT220 trap and a DoC 200 trap<\/em><\/p>\n Pete and Judy gained experience with trail cameras working with the Australian Wildlife Conservancy monitoring endangered species such as Northern Bettongs and Carpenterian Pseudantichinus.<\/p>\n So when they set up an AT220 possum trap on the Makino R trapline, they also set up a trail camera to monitor it. The trap and camera have been in place for 15 months and show that the AT220 does kill possums – heaps of them.<\/p>\n
