Summary

Emily Hruza, a dedicated student from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, has embarked on an exciting journey as a Cabela’s apprentice researcher. Her project focuses on the interaction between Chacma baboons and African elephants at watering holes, highlighting the ecological significance of these species and the importance of conservation efforts.

Hruza's work exemplifies the valuable learning experiences that registered apprenticeship programs provide, combining academic knowledge with hands-on research.
