Wild Life In Costa Rica Biography
North Carolina has always been one of America’s richest states when it comes to fish and wildlife resources. Our diversified terrain — which stretches from the Great Smoky Mountains down through the foothills of the Piedmont and onward to the eastern coastal plains and famed Outer Banks — supports an incredibly diverse array of species. Some of these habitats (including the salt water marshes of our coastal counties, the Great Dismal Swamp of northeast N.C. and the unspoiled mountain acres of the Pisgah National Forest) are home to species so unique that they are seldom found outside of North Carolina. Our waters are equally fertile: there are nearly two dozen major commercial species in North Carolina’s salt waters plus thriving populations of shrimp, oyster and blue
These resources are not only important to naturalists and conservationists, they are critical to North Carolina’s economy. Each year, commercial fishermen harvest over 79 million pounds of crab and fish from North Carolina’s waters, while recreational anglers land more than 22 million pounds of fish annually. Tourists also flock to our state to hunt, hike, camp, canoe, birdwatch and observe the wildlife
We collaborate across disciplines within the university, or with state and federal agencies and private organizations, to address basic and applied questions about fish and wildlife ecology, habitat use, conservation, production, harvest, and interactions with people, on a scale ranging from individual organisms to ecosystems. These activities also provide living laboratories for the education of our .
