Restoring Genetic Diversity of Endangered Mountain Yellow­legged Frogs in Extirpated Watersheds

The National Park Service intends to fund a project to restore genetic diversity of endangered mountain yellow-legged frogs in extirpated watersheds. The project will be funded through a cooperative agreement with the University of California, Santa Barbara. The goal of the project is to restore the genetic diversity of the frog population. Key aspects of the project include: • Restoring genetic diversity of endangered mountain yellow-legged frogs • Conducting research and training programs • Collaborating with the University of California, Santa Barbara • Focusing on extirpated watersheds This opportunity may be a good fit for organizations with experience in conservation, wildlife management, and research.
