You are an applied ecologist that is monitoring the proposed development of a sawmill on forested land next to a small town. Within the forest, there is an endangered species (small mammal) that is locally migratory but you do not know the full migration route, the extent of its range, where the breeding sites are, and what resources it heavily relies on. The sawmill wants to harvest 2% of the forest every year for 10 years. Your goal is to monitor the endangered species and other development impacts to provide information for an ecological impact assessment.  List three types of monitoring and/or sampling tactics would you use and explain why. For each type of monitoring/sampling tactic, what tool/technology would you use? Please list specific names of the of monitoring/sampling types and tech used.
