Western Burrowing Owls (<i>Athene cunicularia hypugaea</i>) are a species of national conservation concern in the U.S., federally endangered in Canada, and a Species of Greatest Conservation Need in Wyoming. Identifying causes of declines in long-distance migrants is often hampered because we know little about migratory routes, wintering locations, and annual dispersal. To address these knowledge gaps for Western Burrowing Owls, we deployed solar-powered satellite transmitters (PTTs) on ~125 ad

|
March 2015
|
Our study suggests that post-release mortality may be higher than previously assumed for Lake Trout because mortality continues after 48 hours. In future studies, post-release mortality could be reduced by increasing gill-net lift times and increasing mesh size used to increase length of fish captured.

All efforts to predict adaptation to climate change assume coming changes in species' distributions. However, we currently know little about the patterns and causes of seasonal movements in most animals. Species exhibiting partial or differential migration patterns provide opportunities to test which factors mediate intraspecific variation in migratory decisions within populations. Yellow-eyed juncos (Junco phaeonotus) make facultative short-distance migrations along elevational gradients in

We failed to detect any effects of cattle grazing on nesting success or nest survival of greater sage-grouse, but we found some evidence that nest density was higher in non-grazed treatment pastures. Coyotes were the main nest predator of sage-grouse nests, and sagebrush cover was negatively associated with the probability of coyotes depredating a sage-grouse nest.

We quantified the effects of grazing on sage-grouse demographic traits. Grass heights were lower in grazed pastures, and were lower at failed nests than at successful nests, but we found no evidence that grazing (at <30% utilization) reduced nest survival. We also found no evidence that brood fate was lower in pastures with spring grazing. Nest density was higher in the non-grazing and spring grazing treatments compared to the spring and fall grazing treatment.

|
Livestock grazing is the most extensive land use within greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) habitat and the effects of grazing on sage-grouse are often hotly debated. Some view livestock as a significant threat to sage-grouse while others argue that livestock grazing may have a positive impact on grouse because of reduced fuel loads resulting in less wildfire. Unfortunately, no empirical data are available to assess either claim, and no experimental studies have examined the effects
