The Wildlife and Vegetation Management Technician will support the Avon Park AFR natural resources program through various monitoring and vegetation management efforts. Wildlife monitoring tasks will include surveys for various threatened and endangered (T&E) species that are found on the installation, including the Red-Cockaded Woodpecker. The technician will also deploy acoustic monitors throughout the installation, and will review images obtained from panther camera-traps. Vegetation tasks will include assisting the installation botanist with the management of invasive, T&E, and rare vegetation species, and may include plant restoration and prescribed burn preparation. This work will require the use of hand-tools, and potentially chainsaws. The technician will also occasionally support the outdoor recreation program on the weekends (the workweek will be adjusted to Tuesday-Saturday when this occurs).
