January Native Prairie Speaker Series - Webinar
Title: Habitat quality and the genetic population structure of the Ord’s kangaroo rat
Date: Thursday January 30th, 2025 12:00pm CT
Speaker: Jessie Bainbridge, MSc Candidate, University of Regina, Department of Biology
About this Webinar:
The Ord’s kangaroo rat is an endangered species in Canada, with habitat loss identified as the primary threat. Jessie’s research aims to better understand habitat characteristics that influence Ord’s kangaroo rats at a local and landscape scale. Specifically, Jessie is investigating how Ord’s Kangaroo Rat reproductive success and body condition vary with local sand dune characteristics. Additionally, she is examining the genetic population structure of kangaroo rats across their Canadian range and identifying landscape features that may serve as barriers to dispersal and gene flow. These research objectives are intended to help inform ongoing and future habitat remediation and conservation strategies for the species.
