Research:the wildlife center utilizes science-based research to manage our 756 acre refuge. The wildlife center has people on its staff, board of directors, and large team of active volunteers qualified to design, supervise, or conduct the necessary research. The wildlife center has also actively developed research connections with qualified scientists at the many colleges and universities in the area. These faculty members regularly conduct research projects and/or supervise research work by undergraduate and graduate students on wildlife center property. Additionally, each autumn, lgnc staff, interns, and volunteers conduct raptor migration research at the bake oven knob hawk watch west of lgncs refuge. This work is currently supported by the pennsylvania game commission.
