www.absc.usgs.gov — This study was designed to measure the effects of surgically-implanted radios on geese. Biologists are also gathering data on movements of geese within the Anchorage Bowl. That information may help local wildlife managers assess how often birds move into areas where they are in conflict with humans.

fl.biology.usgs.gov — This web resource is a map representation of the distribution of zebra and quagga mussels in U.S. lakes. Zebra mussels were first detected in 1988 in Lake St. Clair, located between Lake Huron and Lake Erie. Within just a few years, they spread into all five of the Great Lakes. Since then, zebra mussels have spread into many large navigable More...
