Using Western Painted Turtle Ecology to Inform Mitigations: Year 1
This multi-year project builds on the outcomes from an FWCP Seed Grant that incorporated citizen science to collect information on western painted turtles crossing the Jaffray Baynes Lake Road.
This new project will collect additional data to address gaps in research, advance baseline knowledge of the turtle populations, and inform effective mitigation measures to support the continued presence of turtles in Baynes Lake.
