After submitting an application for a wildlife tech position in
Glacier National Park in 2018, Vlad Kovalenko quickly found his
way to assisting Glacier Wildlife Biologist, Lisa Bate, with many
projects in the park. One of these projects includes the critical
restoration efforts of Glacier's keystone species
( [link removed] )
, including the Clark's Nutcracker, whitebark pine, and limber
pine trees. Both whitebark pine and limber pine are in danger of
extinction due to white pine blister rust, fire exclusion, and an
infestation of mountain pine beetles.

Your donations to the Glacier Conservancy are supporting the
continuation of this study through Vlad's graduate work,
examining the relationship between these keystone species and how
to restore their populations to ensure ecosystem recovery. Keep
reading to learn more about the study from Vlad himself.
