Florida Atlantic University has been selected for a project under the South Florida CESU Master Cooperative Agreement to study the diet of nesting White Ibis in Everglades National Park. This research aims to identify and quantify crayfish species consumed by White Ibis chicks and enhance the understanding of Everglades trophic ecology. By analyzing boluses from nesting White Ibis, the project will determine the relative proportion of crayfish species in their diet, contributing valuable insights to the park’s ecosystem. Applications are not being accepted for this specific task agreement.

| Description: | Notice of intent to award, applications will not be accepted for this agreement. This task agreement is being awarded to Florida Atlantic University under South Florida CESU Master Cooperative Agreement: P16AC00032. This project will inform upon the crayfish species resource use by White Ibis in Everglades National Park and fill a gap in the understanding of Everglades trophic ecology of nesting ibis. This project will collect and identify the contents of boluses from White Ibis chicks nesting in or near Everglades National Park during two nesting seasons to determine the relative proportion of the two crayfish species in the diet. |
