Research at the Vermont Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit is problem oriented and provides our Cooperators (Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife, The University of Vermont, U.S. Geological Survey, and Wildlife Management Institute) and other agencies with useful and practical information needed to understand and manage fish and wildlife resources in Vermont.  Technical areas of special emphasis include sea-lamprey control, Atlantic salmon restoration, acoustical sampling, food-webs, energetics, landscape ecology, conservation biology, and population modeling.
