Two recent Colorado State University studies used weather radar to track the movements of aerial insectivores and explore how their patterns have changed over the past 20 years. They examined changes in the birds’ roosting habits to try to determine why the species are declining.
A recent study by a transdisciplinary research team led by Colorado State University found ample evidence of the negative effects of light pollution on migrating animals and a need for more data to help protect them.

To break the flow of the illegal trade of live cheetah cubs, researchers at Colorado State University are searching for undocumented wild cheetahs that are supplying the high demand for pets in the Middle East. In the Horn of Africa, cheetahs are not so much poached for skins and parts, but rather caught as cubs and trafficked with other contraband through Somaliland and Yemen to wealthy collectors across the Arab Peninsula.
Colorado State University researcher Chad Hoffman is among many researchers who provide scientists and land managers scientific support for the safe and effective use of prescribed fire, a common management tool used to reduce the negative impacts of wildfire and meet ecological objectives.
The National Audubon Society released a new interactive platform, called the Bird Migration Explorer, after collaborations with the Bird Genoscape Project. Much of the collaboration for this project has been primarily focused on data that the Bird Genoscape Project has collected.
