The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant to conduct a detailed wildlife habitat survey on approximately 80 small islands within the Chippewa River, spanning seven Wisconsin counties. A basic inventory in 2010 revealed the presence of several ephemeral ponds across many of these islands. The primary objective of this grant is to ascertain whether these isolated island habitats possess the hydrological characteristics of true ephemeral ponds and, critically, if they are actively used by breeding amphibians. The BLM aims to address concerns regarding the suitability of these ponds, considering factors such as potential fish introduction due to flooding and the geographical separation from larger upland habitats. This investigation is vital for informed conservation and management decisions.
