The USGS is offering this Cooperative Agreement grant to a CESU-affiliated partner to provide essential technical assistance to the U.S. Department of the Interior. This initiative focuses on comprehensive surveillance and investigations of native and invasive wildlife diseases, with critical information dissemination. Priority diseases include avian influenza, white-nose syndrome, cervid health (including Chronic Wasting Disease), herptile diseases, tick-borne diseases, and wildlife zoonoses. Information will be integrated into national databases like WHISPers and AquaDePTH. This grant also fosters academic-federal collaborations through presentations and meetings, aiming to develop evidence-based disease management strategies. This grant is for enhancing wildlife health and public understanding through robust disease monitoring and data sharing.
