We are expanding our partnership with the Institute of Biology, the Mongolian Academy of Sciences (MAS-IB) to initiate a series of studies addressing emerging conservation concerns in Mongolia. For this purpose, we planned several projects including 1) the development of a genetic monitoring tool for brown bears in Mongolia, especially for the critically endangered Gobi bears and 2) ecological studies on species of conservation concern, including grey wolves and marmots in Mongolia.
