| Abstract |
|
Testudinidae Gopherus agassizii Specifically, we address an issue of concern and suggested by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to determine if the use of domestic dog/handler teams to survey for desert tortoises results in attracting native and non-native predators (i.e. coyotes, foxes, feral dogs) at a greater rate than human presence does alone. The objective was to determine if coyotes, foxes and/or feral/free ranging domestic dogs (here after referred to only as feral dogs) are more attracted to locations where people with dogs conduct field surveys compared to locations where there are only people surveying.
