阿肯色州生物学家在达科塔斯通过带条帮助跟踪鸭子,指导养护和可持续狩猎。 Arkansas biologists help track ducks via banding in the Dakotas to guide conservation and sustainable hunting.

Arkansas生物学家正在参加美国地质调查方案,在Prairie Pothoole地区,主要是在8月和9月,在北达科他州和南达科他州各地,对鸭子进行捆绑。 Arkansas biologists are participating in a U.S. Geological Survey program to band ducks in the Prairie Pothole Region, primarily in August and September across North and South Dakota. 他们用网子把金属带绑在鸭子的腿上,追踪移徙模式、人口规模、生存率和收成水平。 Using nets, they attach metal bands to ducks’ legs to track migration patterns, population sizes, survival rates, and harvest levels. 通常由猎人或在勘测期间从回收带中收集的数据为野生生物管理和养护战略提供资料。 Data from recovered bands—often by hunters or during surveys—help inform wildlife management and conservation strategies. 这项协作努力涉及多个州和联邦机构,在气候变化和湿地丧失等持续挑战中支持可持续狩猎和生境保护。 The collaborative effort involves multiple states and federal agencies, supporting sustainable hunting and habitat protection amid ongoing challenges like climate change and wetland loss. 该方案继续是水禽科学的一个重要工具。 The program continues to be a vital tool in waterfowl science.
