DESCRIPTION:Learn about the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology's
  winter session in Costa Rica. The program combines field-based data colle
 ction\, analysis of tropical biodiversity metrics\, and discussions of the
  most controversial issues in conservation biology. You will be trained in
  standardized bird point counts and camera trap usage to measure avian and
  mammalian biodiversity at two premiere Biological Research Stations Costa
  Rica. You'll study the ecological and evolutionary causes of the extraord
 inarily high levels of biodiversity in Central America\, the ways in which
  such diversity benefits humans\, and the history and politics of conserva
 tion\, preservation\, and restoration projects in the region. Traditional 
 lecture and discussion format is supplemented with daily hands-on projects
 \, extensive walks\, and hikes\, some of which are physically demanding! Y
 ou will live and eat at research facilities used by some of the world's le
 ading tropical biologists and interact with several of them in informal gu
 est lectures. You will also witness an unimaginable diversity of insects\,
  birds\, mammals\, reptiles\, and amphibians!
