Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN><SPAN>To monitor the effects of new trail development on ungulate use of the areas</SPAN></SPAN><SPAN><SPAN>, OSMP staff designed a monitoring plan that included the creation of pellet plots near the Spring Brook Loop and Goshawk Ridge Trails. Staff collected data one year prior to trail construction, and then once annually since the completion of the trail in 2008. Pellet plots consist of a center pivot point for a 5 m radius circular plot. Each plot is systematically searched for animal scat, with a focus on large ungulates, carnivores, and wild turkey. Staff randomly placed the plots at varying distances from the trails (i.e., treatment) and included 25 plots in an untrailed area to act as a control. The Goshawk Ridge Trail plots are separated even more intricately with plots stratified into seven different distance classes: 0-50m, 50-100m, 100-150m, 150-200m, 200-250m, 250-300m, and Controls. The project draws assistance from many different staff members, being organized and anchored by the Wildlife Crew, but being assisted by the Forestry, Trails, IMP, and Restoration Crews. In the early years, this project was part of an All Staff Work Day effort, but in recent years we have reverted to using smaller crews of more experienced people.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
