Executive Summary
March 2003
CBI conducted wildlife corridor surveys for two consecutive years to assess uses by different mammal species. These studies were designed to address the following questions:
- Are the wildlife corridors identified in the subarea plans functional?
- What large mammals (deer, mountain lion, bobcat, coyote) and mesopredators use the linkages?
- What potential constraints to animal movement exist in these areas?
- Where are habitat restoration or other management actions needed to facilitate animal movement?
- Does the Scripps-Poway Parkway underpass function effectively for wildlife movement?
- What survey methods are most efficient in identifying corridor use and evaluating corridor function for each target species?
