Central Question: How can biogeographers actually capture and study data? Guiding Thought Question: Given what you know about biogeography what type of training and skills should they have in order to complete their work? Today's Learning Objective: Students will learn about the ways in which biogeographers conduct their work by participating in a citizen science camera trap activity and learning about other methods such as mapping and photo recognition. |

Good physical health and stamina, any sort of identification work and how to receive samples, basic knowledge on nature

They should have environmental training and know a lot about the environment and how animals and plants interact with it. They should also study conservation and learn about the earth's history and natural resources.

I think that you would need to be a not so cool person and you would probably need to know a little bit about geography, ecology, and zoology.

Required to be healthy, as well as specialize in their field of work and understand culture, government, regulations, geology, biodiversity and aspects of distribution in plant and animal species.

you need to be very good at analyzing and collecting data and have basic knowledge of all of the sciences like environmental science and ecology.

You would need to be able to understand climate conditions and be able to interact with other people in areas that may be unknown to you. Also be able to easily identify and understand many different species.

Biogeographers should be able to store data, apply it to some sort of map, know the basics of geography, and let's hope that they know what they're supposed to be biogeographering.

a skill they would need to know is how to identify plants and animas and they need to be persistent and able to work on the same project for a long periods of time
