Movements, Space Use, and Habitat Selection of the Mottled Duck in Georgia and South Carolina
Author: Kaylee Marie Pollander

ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
A non-native population of resident mottled ducks (Anas fulvigula) exists in coastal South Carolina and Georgia, but little is known about their ecology and behavior. I used GPS telemetry to document movements, space use, and habitat use of 47 individuals between 2013 0́3 2016. Mean seasonal home ranges varied from 2002 to 4598 ha. Individuals made 23 excursions outside of established ranges varying from 5 km to 139.5 km, 5 dispersal movements varying from 52.6 km to 245.8 km, and 6 long-distance movements. Mottled ducks selected for managed impoundments at multiple spatial scales. My findings indicate that mottled ducks in Georgia and South Carolina are likely one population, and are highly dependent on impounded wetlands. I recommend state and federal agencies create and manage impounded wetlands to benefit mottled ducks across the South Carolina and Georgia coasts.
