Science in Practice · Whitehorse, Yukon
Professional wildlife monitoring and ecological assessment services across the Yukon and the north. We partner with government agencies, conservation organizations, and resource industries to deliver rigorous, science-based field work, analysis, and reporting.
RavenScout Ecological Consulting Inc. is dedicated to bridging the gap between academia and practical land management. Based in Whitehorse, Yukon, we deliver professional wildlife monitoring and ecological assessment services across the territory and the broader north.
Our philosophy is Science in Practice. We believe high-quality data is the foundation of responsible conservation and development. Whether working with industry, government, or conservation organizations, we deliver clear, actionable results from robust scientific methods.
Our team combines advanced academic training with field experience in bioacoustic monitoring, camera trapping, ecological data management, and remote sensing.
From study design through to the final report — the full ecological monitoring workflow.
Expert wildlife surveys across northern and mountain ecosystems, using established protocols and methods tailored to project requirements.
Rigorous data pipelines for large-scale ecological datasets, ensuring integrity, accessibility, and compliance with open data standards.
Quantitative ecological analysis using current statistical and modelling approaches, with transparent, reproducible workflows in R and ArcGIS Pro.
Clear, technically rigorous reporting that translates ecological findings into actionable recommendations for decision-makers.
Two quantitative ecologists with complementary field and analytical expertise in northern and mountain ecosystems.
Biologist, Owner
Quantitative ecologist born and raised in Whitehorse, Yukon. Anna's MSc research at the University of Alberta focused on terrestrial bird responses to climate-amplified shrub dominance in boreal mountains of the Yukon. She brings 5 years of field and data management experience with Environment and Climate Change Canada's Canadian Wildlife Service to the table and founded RavenScout Ecological Consulting Inc. in 2025.

Biologist, Co-founder
Quantitative ecologist with expertise spanning trophic ecology, multi-species interactions, and wildlife field work. Sejer's MSc examined food web dynamics in sharp-tailed grouse via stable isotope analysis. He is currently a PhD candidate at the University of Alberta studying cumulative effects of landscape change on horses, cattle, and native grazers using camera traps, bioacoustics, and birds as indicators of ecological change.
