Our cutting-edge, ongoing research may accelerate domestic energy production by providing managers and industry vital information for solar-energy siting in the Northeast U.S. Good sites for solar energy, including agriculture lands like hayfields and pas, provide nesting habitat for grassland birds such as bobolink and eastern meadowlark.

Kelsey Shepherd is busy collecting samples and examining the impacts of site characteristics and landscape composition on bumble bee health and site use. This work will inform future habitat restoration work for rusty patched bumble bees in the Midwest.

American bullfrogs are causing big problems for our native wildlife in Arizona. These non-native frogs are a threat to species like the federally threatened Chiricahua leopard frog and northern Mexican garter snake. Bullfrogs breed quickly and spread far, making it tough to control their numbers. But there’s good news!

Camren Fraser is an M.S. candidate from Boise, ID at the Mississippi Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit. Camren is researching fish condition through multiple measurements crisscrossing a fish’s body. He was also a finalist in the Image of Research competition sponsored by the Graduate School at Mississippi State University.

Habitat change from wildfire and forest restoration treatments can influence habitat conditions for mule deer, elk, mountain lions, and black bears in New Mexico. We are teaming up with our cooperators and partners to design better restoration treatments that reduce wildfires and improve habitat conditions for wildlife.
