Loreto, Baja California Sur, Mexico - During the sympoisum, Heather and Ann were especially pleased to hear from some Mk10-AF users that the Wildlife Computers Fast-GPS tags were far exceeding longevity expectations. Excellent!
The sympoisum, Loreto-style, provided several new experiences, including meeting with attendees in the open air of Plaza Salvatierra, and after the rains began, down the road in the auditorium. This gave us a unique opportunity to listen to the remaining presentations while simultaneously staffing the table. We also welcomed the opportunity to again assist by providing student travel funds for the event.
