Waterfowl Ecology & Management

Catalog description

The goal of this course is to familiarize you with the ecology and management of North America waterfowl throughout their annual cycle by applying broad concepts from life history theory, behavioral and community ecology, and conservation biology. Each lecture, I will strive to provide basic background information on specific topics, and integrate this with new advances on the forefront of waterfowl research. This course is for non-majors, and cannot count towards the major for any degree in Biology or Environmental Science.
