Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Peru:ongoing investigative measures for endangered alto purus national park regarding illegal logging and other threats along six rivers that serve as primary access routes to the park. United states: developing conservation programs for the colorado plateau

Activity 3

Namibia desert rhino conservation project:today, due largely to the work of the save the rhino trust (srt) to stop poaching, census estimates show the numbers of black rhinos in the kunene region have doubled, and that poaching has all but vanished in the region. Save the rhino trust is now expanding its focus to include research on the habitat needs of the rhino, establishing land conservation measures that will ensure long-term conservation of key rhino habitats and re-populating previously extirpated rhino ranges. Round river assists srt researchers in base line ecological research efforts. These research efforts include rhino census efforts, bird and herpetological surveys, and habitat model field validation. Students perform field duties during twelve-week research periods, participate in lectures and group discussions, and complete written assignments and exams.
