An Internship in Conservation Biology with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

Wolf, Morgan Kay

Abstract Details

2009, Master of Environmental Science, Miami University, Environmental Sciences.
The purpose of this report is to describe my internship experience with the Charleston Ecological Services Field Office from September 2008 to August 2009. The Charleston E.S. Office (Office) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) field office providing ecological services to a variety of stakeholders. The focus of my internship was on researching both the source and impact of contaminants on South Carolina’s coastal wildlife refuges including Santee, Ernest F. Hollings ACE Basin, Cape Romain and Waccamaw national wildlife refuges. I had many opportunities and responsibilities during my internship; including wetland permitting review and mitigation activities, Biological Opinion (BO) work pertaining to the red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), and field work involving the Carolina Heelspitter (Lasmigona decorata), and endangered sea turtles. This report summarizes the projects and activities with which I was involved as well as the training and experiences I had during my internship with the Service.
