</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Center for Bat Research, Outreach, and Conservation at Indiana State University is recruiting two (2) Field Technicians to aid in an 8 week study of bats in Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. Research will involve mistnet surveys
to capture bats, use of radio telemetry to track bats to their day-roosts, use of radio telemetry to asses foraging areas, measuring habitat characteristics around roosts, and deploying bat detectors to record bat calls in remote forested areas in Cumberland
Gap National Historical Park. The technician will work closely with a graduate student to gain familiarity with the study area and survey techniques. On a daily basis, the technician will work with 2 other technicians and the graduate student to accomplish
project objectives (capture, tracking, veg plots). The principal investigator will be present for capture surveys. Duties will also include driving (4WD field vehicle will be provided, personal vehicle mileage will be reimbursed), hiking long distances in
mountainous terrain (up to 10 miles/day), carrying heavy equipment, data entry, and data management. Housing will be provided (in Harrogate, TN or Middlesboro, KY), but over-night camping may occasionally be required. <o:p></o:p></p>
