The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) California is offering this grant to fund a critical study of shrub habitats essential for the blunt-nosed leopard lizard’s survival on the Panoche Plateau. This grant is for the purpose of advancing the species’ recovery and downlisting, a required task promising significant economic relief by removing endangered species restrictions and preventing extinction. The project involves a close collaborative relationship with BLM, including co-mentoring two students by the Hollister Field Office Ecologist. Students must fulfill degree requirements, and the study expects to yield 10 peer-reviewed publications, significantly enriching conservation knowledge.
