Let’s talk about the birds and the bees – and the bats and the ants. Shelly Wiggam is the new state coordinator for Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever in Kansas and was recently the manager of The Nature Conservancy’s Conservation Stewardship Initiative. Her PhD research investigated how both insect pollinators and plants responded to different rangeland management practices in the Flint Hills and beyond.
