Description

To accomplish eradication of introduced arctic fox on Kiska, the FWS is testing and evaluating the toxicant sodium monofluoroacetate Compound 1080. Incumbent upon the FWS during fox eradication is the need to : 1 evaluate the effect of the treatment on arctic fox, the target species; 2 monitor the impact of the eradication program on nontarget wildlife, in particular, raptors and avian scavengers; and 3 evaluate and document the recolonization and population trends of other avian species whose populations have been suppressed by arctic fox.
