Dr. Patricia D Moehlman is a behavioral ecologist/conservation biologist. Her research focus has been on wild equids and canids. This has included long-term research on the critically endangered African wild ass in Somalia, Ethiopia and Eritrea. The emphasis is on African wild ass behavior, ecology, demography, population genetics, population viability and ecosystem modeling that involves local people and their livelihoods. The goal is to provide science based strategies for ecosystem management. An important part of this work has been providing support and post-graduate training for African nationals.

Dr. Sarah R. B. King’s work has focused on the conservation of species and landscapes, researching how the behavioral ecology of mammals can inform their management and conservation. She has applied this to the conservation of endangered species by examining the social behavior, home ranges, and habitat use of small mammals and Przewalski’s horses. Dr. King is currently based in Colorado, leading research on the behavior and ecology of feral horses and burros in the American west. Through her position as co-chair of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥/SSC Equid Specialist Group and Red List Authority coordinator, Dr. King works with researchers to assess and conserve endangered equids around the world.
