The US Geological Survey, Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK), is offering a funding opportunity to evaluate current and new Bear Management Areas in Yellowstone National Park.
The evaluation will include efficacy of these management areas in relation to maximizing visitor safety and
enjoyment while ensuring the continued conservation value for grizzly bears.
Statistical analysis of biological data related to bear habitat and bear movement within the Park will be required.
This evaluation and resulting information is intended to assist in key management decisions associated with this iconic species in an internationally renowned ecosystem with high levels of human visitors.
