Prairie Cranes & Sandhills Chickens Pop-Up Class

Michael Forsberg and Larkin Powell will lead a for-credit study tour to the Platte River and Sandhills regions during the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Spring Break 2023, “Prairie Cranes and Sandhill Chickens.” The 1-credit NRES 493 course will provide experiences in blinds with sandhill cranes and greater prairie chickens, with a focus on how conservation organizations and private individuals work to conserve these critical species and their landscapes in Nebraska. Students will network with stakeholders and develop an awareness for influence of culture, politics, economics, and history in natural resource management and use.
