Wildlife inventory and monitoring plays a large role in KBIC’s ability to assess environmental conditions, set management priorities, and to carry out ongoing management activities in an effective manner. The Wildlife Program collects data throughout the L’Anse Reservation and regionally on waterfowl, frogs and toads, sand hill cranes, songbirds, mammals, turtles and salamanders. The program has also monitored for health-related issues such as chronic wasting disease and avian influenza. Continued monitoring is important to calculate the imapct due to a changing climate and other factors.
