Deadline: March 21, 2012
These positions will provide new information on the distribution of the Point Arena mountain beaver (Aplodontia rufa nigra), a federally-listed endangered species. Field sampling will consist of locating and surveying ground transects to determine the presence of mountain beaver burrows, and placement of hair snares to collect genetic samples. The ideal candidate will have experience with data collection and management as well as navigating off-trail using topo maps, compass, and GPS.
