Top wildlife photographer Steve Winter will soon give them a presentation on how to better install camera traps inside the national park. The one-day seminar is scheduled for Monday.
Director and Chief Conservator of Forests (CCF) Vikas Gupta said, &ldquo;Steve Winter will be teaching our staff how to use camera traps to get wonderful images of wild animals. He is an expert in setting camera traps.&rdquo;
About 40 Forest Department officials from SGNP and Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary, including the Assistant Conservator of Forests, Range Forest Officer and Forest Guard, will be participating in the seminar. Winter is in Mumbai to photograph and videograph leopards in the SGNP.
&ldquo;Steve is fascinated by the leopards of SGNP. During our recent meeting he expressed his desire to document leopards for a National Geographic project. We hope his project portrays SGNP leopards in a positive manner,&rdquo; Gupta said.
Installation of camera traps is part of the project, which the forest authorities want to initiate inside the park to study animal behaviour. The participants are looking forward to attend the seminar to learn from the master photographer. They believe that Winter&rsquo;s seminar will help them set up camera traps better.
