Training includes Level 1, 2 and 3 wildlife science and monitoring, eld-based practices and scienti c protocols. The WS technician will apply these principles and theory of wildlife science to assist in the preservation, protection and restoration of native species and ecosystems and participate in the development of a regional habitat conservation plan (local) or natural community and conservation plan (state).
Program Learning Outcomes - upon completion, students will be able to:
• Investigate the practice, eld protocols and technology of
wildlife science.
• Utilize environmental science and the concepts and
principles of wildlife science including biodiversity, ecology, corridor and landscape ecology and ecosystem (adaptive) management as branches of the sciences and apply in a eld setting utilizing the Rapid Assessment Methodology developed at De Anza College in partnership with resource agencies and others.
• Examine the local wildlife and core corridor/landscape areas utilized by wildlife species encountered in the eld (Central Coast Region of California); Examine the data analysis equipment and processes used in wildlife sciences.
• Apply the wildlife sciences concepts, techniques and protocols (including the Rapid Assessment Methodology) to local case studies to develop strategies for implementing community-based, collaborate e orts to preserve, protect and restore native species, ecosystems and landscape connectivity.
• Demonstrate the ability to communicate with key stakeholders the relationship between wildlife protection and preservation, landscape connectivity and the public good with government and resource agencies, agriculture and industry, the public, nonpro ts and others to enhance global, cultural, social and environmental well-being and participate in the development of a regional habitat conservation plan (local) or natural community and conservation plan (state).
