The USGS National Wildlife Health Center works with federal, state, Tribal, and other partners to develop practical scientific tools and information to help wildlife managers and other decision-makers prevent, prepare for, and respond to wildlife disease threats.
These tools range from direct disease-management interventions—such as vaccines and treatment approaches for invasive species—to decision-support products that help managers identify risks, evaluate options, and target actions. Examples include risk assessments, predictive models, interactive mapping platforms, data resources, and other technologies that translate science into management-relevant information.
