The Game Bird lab at Tall Timbers Research Station is seeking individuals to participate in our internship program. TTRS is a private non-profit organization focusing research efforts on sustainable management of bobwhite quail, timber, and prescribed fire use. Long-term game bird research objectives include monitoring demographics on the bobwhite population here at TTRS and assessing quail habitat use in relation to prescribed fire, timber stand characteristics, and other management activities. The internship position that is available will be investigating various imprinting and pen-raising techniques on quail chick survival and productivity. Additionally, daily radio-telemetry will be conducted on 6 week-old released chicks to evaluate survival, home range and habitat use. For more information, click HERE.
