Fall semester is off to a fast start here in the Kohl Wildlife Lab. We have two new students that we are excited to have as they officially start their graduate programs this month. Jen Brown, co-advised with Dr. Clark Rushing, joins us after finishing her B.S. at ESF-SUNY to study black vulture spatial ecology. Summer Fink, joins us after a few years on the Chicago coyote project, and a BS from Warnell in 2018, to lead our new Atlanta Urban Wildlife study. Cat Carter completed her first full season on the black bear project as part her MS. She was able to deploy 38 collars this summer on bears throughout North Georgia. Casey Morrow is transitioning into our new RHDV2 Outreach project (more to come on that), and Collin Richter gets to spend the next two semesters working on his thesis as he looks to wrap up his Mojave Desert Tortoise research!
