Wildlife management
Description:The Columbian sharp-tailed grouse (CSTG, Tympanuchus phasianellus columbianus) is one of six subspecies of sharp-tailed grouse in North America. CSTG currently occupy 10% of their former range due to habitat loss. Since the initiation of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), CSTG have increased in distribution and density. Managers desire to improve existing or historically enrolled CRP fields. Research techniques to evaluate the population response of CSTG to habitat treatments (via understanding chick and juvenile demographic parameters) do not exist. Therefore, the objectives of my study are to: 1) evaluate the capture and transmitter attachment technique for day-old CSTG chicks, 2) evaluate the capture and transmitter attachment technique for 30-day-old CSTG chicks, 3) evaluate the capture technique for > 120 day-old CSTG juveniles, and 4) evaluate 2 necklace transmitter attachment designs for female CSTG.

Wildlife habitat improvement
Description:The Columbian sharp-tailed grouse (CSTG, Tympanuchus phasianellus columbianus) is one of 6 subspecies of sharp-tailed grouse in North America. Historically its distribution ranged from the northwest in British Columbia to the southwest in Colorado. Isolated populations exist (or formally existed) in Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Montana (extirpated), Utah, Nevada (reintroduced) and Oregon (reintroduced) occupying 10% of its former range. Habitat loss and degradation from anthropogenic activities are cited as the primary reasons for its decline with the conversion of native shrub plant communities to agricultural production being the most prevalent.

Description:The mountain plover (Charadrius montanus) is a migratory shorebird which breeds on the shortgrass prairies of Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana. Continental population trends suggest a steady decline over the past century. Colorado is considered the stronghold for mountain plovers, as over half of the world’s population is believed to breed in the state. In order to develop conservation strategies for mountain plovers, we must adequately assess the relative value of each of the habitats used for breeding activity in eastern Colorado: grasslands without prairie dogs (Cynomys ludovicianus), grasslands with prairie dogs, and agricultural fields.

Description:The State of Colorado has implemented a partnership based, multi-jurisdictional, mandatory watercraft inspection and decontamination program to prevent the spread of Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS). The purpose of the State of Colorado Containment Manual for Watercraft Inspection and Decontamination Stations (Manual) is to provide standard containment protocols across jurisdictions within Colorado, and potentially across the West. This Manual details the watercraft inspection and decontamination (WID) containment procedures to contain and prevent the overland spread of aquatic nuisance species. These procedures apply to all aquatic nuisance species, both plant and animal, but are strongly focused on zebra and quagga mussels (ZQM). [show more]

Subject:Coyotes
Description:CPW has compiled this list as a tool for homeowners to utilize when trying to minimize conflicts with coyotes. The following exclusion techniques, deterrents, and repellents were gathered from various internet searches and written source reviews. CPW has not tested these products for their effectiveness nor endorses any particular product/method. Residents are encouraged to do their own research on additional tools that may be available.

Subject:Coyotes
Description:CPW encourages you to take steps to eliminate attractants and participate in hazing efforts on your property (hazing would include yelling or throwing objects at coyotes that come onto your property or that approach too closely) in order to minimize conflicts with coyotes. CPW also urges you to share this information with friends, neighbors and your community since minimizing conflicts is most effective when the entire neighborhood is working together. [show more]
