From late May through late June we monitored flowering phenology of all plants in four transects in Grand Teton National Park. We identified and collected blooming data on 25 species. In addition, we assessed both bumblebee species composition and foraging activity in the same transects. We captured queens from five different bumblebee species in vane traps. Observations of transects for forager activity yielded little data, and we recommend future studies employ walking transects.   Featured photo by Michael Dillon, taken from the AMK Ranch photo collection.

Until recently, little attention has been directed to the bat fauna of GTNP. The role of bats in ecosystems is more significant than previously thought. Also, the public's awareness of bats is growing and as part of routine interpretive needs, the NPS must have factual information on all animals in the Park. A baseline survey was conducted to determine species composition, distribution, abundance, and habitat use of bats in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. The principal objectives are: 1. Obtain information on species occurrence and distribution within the Park; 2. Assess the population status for bat species present; 3. Identify rare species in the Park and identify management needs to ensure the viability of these species in GTNP; and 4. Evaluate potential conflicts with human activities.

Based on the results of comprehensive fisheries research, a brief description of the ecosystem of the lake of the Shaturskaya group operated in the mode of the cooling reservoir of the Shaturskaya GRES is given. The features of the thermal regime of the Shatursky lakes in the zone of the circulating flow of cooled waters are considered. A brief description of the species composition and quantitative indicators of the development of phytoplankton, zooplankton and macrozoobenthos communities is given. The structure of fish catches in the lakes depending on the fishing gear used is considered according to the data of accounting surveys with set nets and fry drag. The process of formation of the ichthyofauna of Shatursky lakes, characteristic of natural and man-made ecosystems of reservoirs-coolers of energy facilities, is shown. The occurrence of native and invasive fish species in catches is described, and the mechanism of seasonal migration of fish depending on the temperature and oxygen regimes of the Shatursky lakes is considered.

Eight in-service teachers and two instructors engaged in an inquiry-based geology field course from June 14 to 29, 2014 through Wyoming, South Dakota, and Nebraska. This team of learners spent three days in mid-June working in the Grand Teton National Park area. The UW-NPS facilities provide an excellent opportunity for participants to discover the natural history of the Teton Range, as well as close-out a few projects while sitting in a real chair, at a real table, a welcome change from our usual campground setting.

River Otters

Grand Teton National Park is part of the known range of the North American river otter, however not much is known about this semi-aquatic mammal within the park. The results presented here are part of a larger project to investigate the potential of the river otter (Lontra canadensis) to serve as an aquatic flagship (species that engender public support and action) for the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. River otters, known for their charismatic behavior have the potential to serve as an aquatic flagship species to promote conservation of aquatic ecosystems. The primary objective of this portion of the study was to identify river otter latrines on portions of the Snake River, between Flagg Ranch and Jackson Lake, and between Jackson Lake Dam and Pacific Creek, collect river otter scats to determine diet of the river otter, and employ remote cameras to determine activity patterns of the river otters. Between 20 June and 1 July 2015, 26 river otter latrines were identified during shoreline surveys, 186 river otter scats were collected, and cameras were deployed at 6 latrines between 7 July and 24 August 2015. River otter scats have been cleaned and prepared for analysis, but have not all been processed to date. Camera traps recorded 222 images, of which 7% (n = 14) were of carnivores, 70% (n = 155) were of non-carnivore mammals, and 9% (n = 22) were of birds. River otters were detected at 1 of the 6 latrines, a total of 5 independent times during the study.
