My research interests center on wildlife habitat relationships.  My students are currently working on projects that range from studying elk impacts in New Mexico, land use effects on  turkey populations in Texas and Kansas, to prairie dogs and burrowing owl ecology in the Texas panhandle.  Our group works collaboratively with faculty members in the Department of Range, Wildlife and Fisheries Management, the Department of Biology, and other faculty and agency personnel.  We  focus on using scientific methods to increase our understanding of how management decisions about land-use practices (e.g., agriculture, brush management, grazing, and urbanization) affect wildlife populations and basic ecological processes.  I am interested in the effects of introduced domestic and exotic species on habitat use by native wildlife.  I am also very interested in the ecology and management of wildlife in the rural-urban interface. I believe urbanizing environments provide an excellent opportunity to study vertebrate populations in fragmented habitats.
