Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx Ecological Research Center. The Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx Ecological Research Center at Ichauway seeks to understand, to demonstrate, and to promote excellence in natural resource management and conservation on the landscape of the southeastern coastal plain of the United States. The Xxxxx Center was founded on a long-standing ethic of conserving land and water resources and Ichauway is maintained as the tangible expression of this natural resource management philosophy. Ichauway has a large, regionally significant, population of gopher tortoises and more than 7000 ha of high-quality habitat. The Center has several ongoing efforts in place to protect and enhance the population of gopher tortoises on Ichauway: • Management of upland habitats with frequent prescribed fire and ecological forestry practices. • Hardwood removal and restoration of longleaf pine and native ground cover. • Gopher tortoise monitoring program initiated in 2006 that includes surveys at 5-year intervals to estimate population size and monitor trends. • Long term predator ecology study that includes monitoring survival of nests and juvenile tortoises. • Numerous education and outreach activities include the gopher tortoise and its role as a keystone species. These activities are targeted toward private landowners, NGOs, state and federal agencies, and University students. • Related educational wildlife and ecological events involve approximately 500-800 participants annually.
