Track raven movements using GPS devices to determine frequencies and distances that these birds move into wildlands and the amounts and types of wildlands that urban ravens include in their home ranges. Project will use data on how ravens from urban areas, where their populations are large, interact with natural settings where desert tortoise are located in order to manage predation of the threatened Mojave desert tortoise by common ravens.
