Project Involvement
Analise currently manages our camera trapping project monitoring mammal populations and monitoring for python presence within the interior refuge of Loxahatchee, as well as a project to assess new methods for eDNA detection of invasive species. She is also involved in the trapping and removal of invasive Argentine black and white tegus, crocodylian projects, as well as the Everglades Invasive Reptile and Amphibian Monitoring Program (EIRAMP), where she conducts herpetofaunal surveys throughout southern Florida. Analise also assists with tracking Burmese python movements through the Everglades marsh via radio-telemetry and partakes in outreach efforts to engage the public with ongoing native and invasive species research.
