Genetic Applications to Conserve and Manage Species

Heather Evans, Conservation Geneticist, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission

 

Did you know that you can use DNA to identify prey or predators? To determine how many fish stocked into a river system survive? To estimate populations sizes? To identify species living in an ecosystem without actually seeing the species? Join us as Heather Evans, conservation geneticist for the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, discusses how genetic tools can be used in wildlife management.
