Available as an insured subcontract field biologist through Travel Twist Biologist LLC for projects nationwide, with over 13 years of consulting and biological survey experience in the protection of natural resources. specialized experience supporting federally listed species surveys including the golden-cheeked warbler (Setophaga chrysoparia) in Texas and desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii) in Nevada and California for large-scale infrastructure projects.
Protected Species Specializations
Certain wildlife species receive federal or state protection because their populations are declining, their habitat is limited, or they are especially vulnerable to disturbance during critical life stages such as breeding. When projects occur within potential habitat, targeted surveys by a qualified biologist help determine whether protected species are present and what avoidance or mitigation measures are required to remain compliant with regulations such as the Endangered Species Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. These surveys support responsible project planning, reduce regulatory risk, and help ensure construction activities proceed while minimizing impacts to sensitive wildlife populations.
