An important part of conservation planning is understanding the biology and ecology of the target species. Oregon Wildlife Institute develops conservation assessments for species of conservation concern. These documents provide managers with succinct summaries of available information on the biology, ecology, and conservation issues. They facilitate timely, informed conservation planning and management decision-making.
