The U.S. Geological Survey’s Western Ecological Research Center is offering a funding opportunity to a member of the Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (CESU) Program. This department is offering this grant for a project specifically titled ‘Conservation Corridors for Desert Tortoises.’ The primary purpose of this initiative is to enhance the understanding of desert tortoise population connectivity. Through this research, the project aims to identify existing corridors that possess the potential to facilitate crucial gene flow among tortoise populations. This critical work will contribute significantly to the conservation efforts for desert tortoises by mapping out pathways vital for their genetic health and long-term survival. This grant is for supporting essential ecological research.
