Assess Long-term Viability of Restored Swift Foxes in Badlands NP and western South Dakota
Badlands National Park (BADL) began a three-year swift fox restoration program in 200 3. A significant number of these released foxes are surviving to reproduce and will likely establish a population.
Therefore, it is essential to continue to monitor this population by gathering reproduction,
pup survival, habitat preference, and genetic information in order to assess the long-term viability of the population.Therefore, it is essential to continue to monitor this population by gathering reproduction,
This project will also guide future management decisions about population supplementation beyond the current release program.
In addition, it will be important to determine if/when the Badlands swift fox population merges or connects with the resident swift fox population in southwestern South Dakota.
These two populations would then begin to function as a metapopulation and thus increase genetic diversity and population viability.
