Dr. Alisa Wade, University of Montana, collects a sample from a vernal pond Feb 13, 2017 at Travis Air Force Base, Calif. Wade, part of a two person team, is the project coordinator for a “habitat quality assessment” project to determine if Travis has a viable environment for the western spadefoot toad. The assessment includes recording data for vegetation type, soil friability and a visual check for mammal burrows and WST predators. The team will also collect DNA samples from several ephemeral vernal pools through a filter that will go back to a genetics lab to determine if any DNA from the WST is floating around the pool, indicating the toads have been there.
