New “Bobscapes” Mobile App Helps Establish National Bobwhite Database
Although the bobwhite is one of the most researched birds in the country and perhaps the world, scientists still don’t have a solid understanding of the quail’s population distribution across its range. To help alleviate this problem, NRCS has been working with Quail Forever and the University of Georgia Gamebird and Managed Ecosystems Lab as part of the Working Lands for Wildlife – Northern Bobwhite Quail Partnership to develop a new mobile app called Bobscapes
Healthy Sagebrush Communities Poster
Restricted to 5 copies outside of NRCS. This one-sided 32X21 hand-drawn Healthy Sagebrush Communities poster showcases how locally led, partnership-based, science-driven efforts can make great strides in conserving at-risk wildlife and America’s western rangelands. The threats, outcomes, data, and solution highlighted on the poster are derived from 15 years of research and conservation on the ground through NRCS’ Working Lands for Wildlife and its Sage Grouse Initiative. It shows the connections between people, the land, wildlife, conservation, science, and rural economies for a healthy sagebrush ecosystem. Enhancing private lands where sagebrush habitat is intact and sage grouse numbers are highest benefits agricultural producers and 350 other species that depend on it.
