The USGS is offering funding to a CESU partner for field-based research on the ecology of wild equids, mountain lions, and other ungulates in the Western USA, particularly in Nevada. This grant aims to address data gaps and knowledge needs identified in a NAS review of the BLM wild horse and burro program. The research will focus on studying the interactions between mountain lions and wild horses to evaluate the role of wild horses in native predator-prey systems in the Rocky Mountain region and Great Basin ecosystems.
