Abstract: <p>Hybridization contributes to the genetic diversity and can impact speciation. This study investigates the genetic evidence of recent hybridization under climate change in sympatric populations of northern and southern flying squirrels in Ontario. Using low-coverage whole-genome sequences, my research examines the existing population structure and measures the genomic variation of the… more

Abstract: <p>Wildlife translocation programs are widely employed as a strategy to reintroduce extirpated species into regions they once inhabited but no longer do. Reintroduction programs can be successful at re-establishing extirpated populations and also provide unique opportunities to study post-reintroduction population dynamics and behavioural ecology. The wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is a… more
