The Idaho Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit works closely with state and federal cooperators to conduct research that supports management of fish and wildlife populations in Idaho and throughout North America. Unit scientists also train graduate students at the University of Idaho for careers in state, tribal and federal agencies and in academia. The Unit offers a unique partnership among the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, University of Idaho, U.S. Geological Survey, Wildlife Management Institute and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service whereby partners work together to design and conduct research that helps solve complex environmental issues.
Scientists in the cooperative research unit have three goals:
- Conduct research that supports management of fish and wildlife populations
- Train graduate students for careers in the fish and wildlife professions
- Provide technical assistance and training opportunities for state, tribal and federal managers and researchers
