The NBRC Wildlife Management Department is offering this grant to secure expert technical and biometric assistance for ecological monitoring and data analysis. This grant is for the purpose of developing a long-term monitoring protocol to track trends in breeding landbird populations and their habitats at the NBRC. The assistance will also explicitly link this protocol to major wildlife management activities, including bison rotational grazing, prescribed fire, and invasive plant treatment. Furthermore, the grant aims to provide statistical and biometric support for the analysis of various ecological datasets, crucial for informed wildlife management decisions.

The USFWS, National Bison Range Refuge Complex, intends to award a Cooperative Agreement, initially in the amount of NTE $30,000, through the Rocky Mountains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The National Bison Range has submitted a sole-source justification for the consideration and selection of the Avian Science Center at the University of Montana. In the event that the Avian Science Center is unable to perform the work, consideration will be given to others based on the criteria above. The purpose of the agreement is to develop a long-term monitoring program for landbirds at the National Bison Range Complex |
