This grant, offered by the Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, is designed to advance grouse conservation efforts within the state. Its primary purpose is to provide crucial detailed genetic information by employing advanced molecular techniques. Specifically, this grant will support research using microsatellites and mitochondrial DNA to accurately determine the level of genetic introgression occurring between Sharp-tailed Grouse and Sage-Grouse populations. Understanding this genetic interaction is vital for developing effective conservation strategies, safeguarding the genetic integrity of these species, and informing future wildlife management decisions across Montana’s ecosystems. The findings will directly support long-term species viability.
