This grant is for the purpose of funding collaborative research aimed at understanding ferruginous hawk nesting behaviors and the efficacy of mitigation strategies within natural gas development fields. BLM Wyoming is offering this opportunity for a partner to gather additional, detailed information about the nesting territories of ferruginous hawks. A core objective is to thoroughly evaluate the use of artificial nest platforms as a vital mitigation tool. This initiative seeks to ensure the preservation and maintenance of active ferruginous hawk nest territories within areas undergoing development, thereby supporting sustainable land use and wildlife conservation efforts while addressing the impacts of energy extraction on sensitive species.
