SUMMARY:Viewing of the APT series episode on "Wildlife"
DESCRIPTION:APT films Auburn students looking on as researchers remove the threatened Eastern indigo snake from a trap during a monitoring exercise in the Conecuh National Forest. Auburn University scientists\, Jimmy and Sierra Stiles\, monitor the snakes as part of a multi-agency reintroduction effort that released 26 Eastern indigo snakes into the Conecuh National Forest in July 2017. \nAs part of Alabama Public Television’s ongoing “Spotlight on Agriculture” documentary series\, the network will air  “Wildlife” on Monday\, May 6\, at 9 p.m. C.T. “Wildlife” is the second episode in a trilogy series focused on Auburn University School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences research and the importance of forestry\, wildlife and natural resources to the state’s economy and quality of life. \nThrough a series of interviews\, the “Wildlife” episode will examine Auburn University’s wildlife research and partnerships with landowners\, agencies and other stakeholders to aid the development of policies that will assure healthy and sustainable game and non-game wildlife populations and their habitats. \nThe episode will also discuss the complex relationships between land use\, climate change and population growth that alter the health-related interactions among people\, animals and the environment that contribute to the presence of diseases such as rabies\, Lyme disease and the West Nile and Zika viruses. \nThe final episode in the trilogy “Environment and Society\,” anticipated to air later this year\, will discuss Auburn’s research to examine the relationships between humans and the environment as they relate to economics\, policies and other organizational aspects of society. \nSFWS faculty\, staff and students are invited to view the episode during their lunch period on Monday at noon in the Dixon Executive Conference Room. \n

SUMMARY:MS Seminar - Max Birdsong
DESCRIPTION:M.S. Seminar: Max Birdsong\, Maj. Prof\, Dr. Wayde Morse \n\n\nTitle: Exploring the Social Habitat of Alabama Public Land Hunters \nLocation: Dixon Conference Room 3315 \nDate: Wednesday\, May 8\, 2019 \nTime: 9 a.m. \nAbstract: \nThe United States has been facing a decline in the number of licensed hunters since around 1980\, posing a serious threat to state conservation agencies who receive funding from hunting license sales. Recent research suggests that this decline can be tied to demographic trends in the United States – such as urbanization\, diversification\, and an aging population – because they have altered hunting society\, or the “social habitat” for hunting. The social habitat for hunting is comprised of multiple levels of factors influencing hunting behavior\, these levels range from individual-level (e.g.\, family support) to very broad (e.g.\, world news). Conventional hunter recruitment\, retention\, and reactivation (R3) research has been focused on factors at the individual level. While these individual level factors are important\, over-emphasis on their influence has created a gap of information concerning the roles of broader social forces on R3. We developed a survey questionnaire to understand the broader social forces affecting R3\, such as demographics\, socialization into hunting\, and public land use. We examined differences in the recruitment and retention for non-traditional hunting populations (e.g.\, females\, adult-onset hunters\, urban hunters). The items affecting recruitment and retention for these groups was different than for traditional hunting populations. Additionally\, we modelled the preferences of public land hunters for WMAs to determine which attributes drive hunting participation. We found site-specific characteristics that predict visitation. Preferences for certain attributes also varied by type of game species targeted. These findings have practical significance for state agencies\, and contribute to the understanding of the social habitat for hunting.
