Courses Taught
FWE 577 Complex Conservation of Deer – Solving problems that arise in the conservation and management of wildlife populations requires that managers understand and evaluate human cultural, economic, and political issues in addition to ecological issues. Students will use deer management in Wisconsin as a case study to understand the interdisciplinary nature of wildlife management while gaining practical hands-on experiences.
FWE 655 Animal Population Dynamics – Fluctuations of animal populations: techniques of study, documentation, controls.
