Recent meeting between NMSU (including FWCE) & Universidad Autónoma de Chihuahua aim to build connections & set the stage for future teaching and research collaborations. Looking forward to visits by UACH to Las Cruces! uach.mx/fzye/noticias/…

Attending the Joint Annual Meeting of the AZ-NM Chapters of The Wildlife Society and the American Fisheries Society in Flagstaff? Visit with Dr. Frey & get a glimpse of her hot-off-the-press new book!

New paper from a team of NMSU Biology researchers & colleagues (including FWCE's Matt Gompper & alumnus Anna Boyle) adds to our understanding of the distribution of ticks and the pathogens they vector

Congratulations to MS student Liz Brock who received a research grant from the New Mexico Water Resources Research Institute. The award will further her work on how water discharge & flow impacts the Rio Grande's macroinvertebrates. Read more here: mailchi.mp/nmsu/new-mexic…

Super proud of the NMSU student chapter of The Wildlife Society for competing in the JAM Quiz Bowl and representing NMSU Fish, Wildlife & Cons Ecol

Proud of my students for presenting at JAM. Topics included rare chipmunks, wind energy impact on ungulates, spotted owl diet, and white-tailed jackrabbits! I did not get a photo of Joe Youtz giving his presentation.

Come join us for this week's seminar to hear about the drivers of avian population change.

Strong NMSU turnout at this year's Joint Annual Meeting of the AZ & NM Chapters of The Wildlife Society & American Fisheries Society. Undergrad Tom Huycke presented on bird carcass persistence in the Chihuahuan Desert (co-authors: Martha Desmond, Dylan Osterhaus & Kelly Boland)

Congratulations to FWCE's Anna White, who won the AZ-NM American Fisheries Society Miles McInnis Undergraduate Scholarship, and to Breanna Graves won the Miles McInnis Graduate Scholarship at last week's Joint Annual Meeting in Flagstaff.

In Natural History of the Vertebrates (NMSU Fish, Wildlife & Cons Ecol's FWCE 330) today, undergrads got their hands dirty exploring the internal anatomy of cartilaginous fishes. Some--like Marius Morgan here--even birthed a few embryos!

Science outreach anyone? Reaching the next generation of wildlife professionals and appreciators.

Congratulations to FWCE's Iona Rohan & Whitney Watson for winning New Mexico TWS Biodiversity Scholarships at the AZ-NM Joint Annual Meeting of The Wildlife Society & The American Fisheries Society in Flagstaff

Congrats to grad student Iona Rohan (coadvised by Theresa Laverty) by for winning a Biodiversity Scholarship from New Mexico chapter of The Wildlife Society at the recent JAM meeting.

Another successful Joint Annual Mtg of the AZ & NM Chapters of The Wildlife Society & the American Fisheries Society. A few images of presentations from FWCE students Heather Zimba, Sam Martinez, Maret Smith-Miller, Will Bass, Dylan Osterhaus & Whitney Watson

A look behind the doors. Lab space is always limited for active research programs. Great to have underused (do we still need a dark room & a non-functional environmental chamber?) Knox Hall space being renovated.

Thanks to Donna Medina & FWCE undergrad Tim Zamora (pictured) for staffing the FWCE booth at yesterday's NMSU Academic Major Fair. If you're considering a degree in Fish, Wildlife & Conservation Ecology, don't hesitate to reach out to us to discuss possibilities

New paper from PhD student Dylan Osterhaus & colleagues examines restored oxbow wetlands. Adding agricultural tile drainage had no negative impacts. Oxbows receiving tile drainage provide habitat for imperiled fish & increase nutrient sequestration rdcu.be/dyUA1
