This research uses helicopter surveys to study javelina habitat use in South Texas. By mapping sightings and woody vegetation cover, it reveals that javelinas prefer dense thornscrub environments. The findings support improved wildlife management and help distinguish native javelinas from invasive wild pigs.

My research tracks the movements of understudied South African ray species using acoustic transmitters and a nationwide receiver network. Early findings reveal key habitats, including Algoa Bay, and annual west-to-east migrations. Mapping ray movements fills crucial ecological knowledge gaps, guiding conservation and management strategies for species at risk of extinction.
