#1 - Staking in the Cage - 3/29/25

<-- Here is one of the Stakes I used to ensure that the cage and the calf carcass inside won't be disturbed by larger animals and that it won't get moved until the experiment is done!

Here is an Image of one of the stakes after it has been hammered into the ground. -->

I am very excited to finally begin this lab, as I have been planning it with my science teacher for the past two or three months! With the help of my roommate, I was able to lug the dog cage (fig. 3) into the woods behind my dorm, and later stake everything down yesterday (fig. 2). I hope to move the calf and time-lapse cameras out to the cage on Monday, the 31st, as it is going to be raining for the duration of this weekend.
