Migratory Bird and Monitoring, Assessment, and Conservation

This funding opportunity will be made to develop the second year of a two year proposed study of Golden Eagle dietary responses in relation to habitat alteration and climate change in southwest Idaho. Funding would more specifically support the hiring of field technicians, fuel for study vehicles, field equipment, and data analysis/management and report writing. Additionally, this funding would be used to collect samples to test for disease and parasites in Golden Eagle nests. The information gathered from this research would be valuable for future Golden Eagle management in the western United States
