Research, Published Work, and Scholarly Activities
My research focuses on captive wild animal care and wildlife ecology, specifically spatial ecology of mammals. I work closely with Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, The Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Gardens, and The Nature Conservancy on a number of projects engaging undergraduate and graduate students in scientifically meritorious research.
