goose catch with students |
Students of the course AB201 terrestrial ecology from UNIS, the university centre on Svalbard,
are assisting today with catching geese. We start with a lecture on gooseology. |
|
During the catch all students are holding a gosling and guide it through the proces of ringing, measuring, blood sampling and weighing. | |
Part of the geese are placed in a bag with insecticides to remove the ectoparasites from the plumage. | |
Willemijn has developed a method to dry the weighing boxes and starts a dance with some of the students. |
