Summary

This project constitutes an inventory of parks in the San Joaquin Valley documenting the presence and distribution of rare and listed vertebrate species. The information was presented along with historic data from past surveys in assorted parks to help assess the role of State Parks in providing quality habitat for rare and listed vertebrate species in the San Joaquin Valley.

Description

This dataset includes burrowing owl observations in Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park (CASHP) and Tule Elk State Reserve (TESR), conducted by contracted biologists from the University of California, Davis Museum of Wildlife and Fish Biology in 2006 and 2007. The Burrowing Owl Consortium protocol (1993) was used in all surveys. A total of five parks were surveyed for burrowing owls, but presence was only recorded in two. This survey effort was part of a larger project administered by California State Parks and funded by Bureau of Reclamation that included nine State Park units in the San Joaquin Valley. The GIS data includes all survey results (both burrows and owls), along with incidental sightings. Note that at CASHP both plot searches and road surveys were utilized. At TESR transect surveys were performed.
