The BLM AK department is offering this grant to facilitate crucial cooperative monitoring of wildlife populations and their habitats across specific BLM lands in Alaska. This grant is designed to achieve a deeper understanding of key species through targeted research. Specifically, this grant is for conducting joint aerial surveys of moose within the White Mountains National Recreation Area and Steese National Conservation Area. Furthermore, it involves aerial surveys and ongoing monitoring of radio-collared Dall’s sheep and caribou. The overarching purpose is to meticulously collect data on their population numbers, age/sex composition, seasonal distribution patterns, precise habitat utilization, and migratory movements. This comprehensive approach aims to bolster conservation and management strategies for Alaska’s diverse wildlife.
