摘要：The Lincoln University Living Laboratory is an approximately 2 hectare heavily wooded area on the Lincoln University campus. The site history includes previous use for industrial development and a rock quarry that is now flooded. A city park, residential development, other Lincoln University property and a secondary roadway border the site. The goal for the Living Laboratory is to create an outdoor educational experience. As part of that goal, we have been conducting surveys for terrestrial vertebrate species observed to be on the site since June 2004. Surveys have included direct and photographic observations as well as live trapping. The focal groups of organisms have been birds and mammals to this point. Future surveys will focus more on reptile, amphibian, fish and plant species. The preliminary results of this survey provide a list of species most likely to be found in a typical urban wooded area in central Missouri and those specifically located on the site.

The Lincoln University Living Laboratory is an approximately 2 hectare heavily wooded area on the Lincoln University campus. The site history includes previous use for industrial development and a rock quarry that is now flooded. A city park, residential development, other Lincoln University property and a secondary roadway border the site. The goal for the Living Laboratory is to create an outdoor educational experience. As part of that goal, we have been conducting surveys for terrestrial vertebrate species observed to be on the site since June 2004. Surveys have included direct and photographic observations as well as live trapping. The focal groups of organisms have been birds and mammals to this point. Future surveys will focus more on reptile, amphibian, fish and plant species. The preliminary results of this survey provide a list of species most likely to be found in a typical urban wooded area in central Missouri and those specifically located on the site.
