Ross and I went out to the farallon’s to
capture conservation stories and map the
refuge the Farallon National Wildlife
Refuge is the largest seabird nesting
colony in the lower 48 states and it’s
also an incredibly important breeding
ground for marine mammals like seals and
sea lions most people don’t know that
the farallon’s even exists the islands
are technically within the city limits
of San Francisco Ross and I are
cartographers so we’re really excited to
make an interactive map to allow people
to explore the islands from afar the
Farallon National Wildlife Refuge is
completely off-limits to the public Ross
and I are working in collaboration with
the US Fish & Wildlife Service and Point
blue conservation science the only folks
who are out there are this team of
scientists 365 days of the year since
the 1960s
there aren’t that many places along the
California coast where sea birds and
marine mammals can spend time without
being disturbed by some sort of human
presence and that’s why we’re here we’re
out here to capture the essence of this
place so that we can bring it back to
the mainland
one of the most consistent comments that
I get is how adorable chinstrap penguins
are but every time you get near them the
very first thing that they do is project
output
