TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) - A team of ecologists at the University of Toledo is getting some funding to study flagship species of the Oak Openings region.
The funding is part of a two-year, $400,000 state wildlife grant from Ohio and Michigan.
Their study will focus on the productivity and survival of red-headed woodpeckers, eastern box turtles and spotted turtles.
Work is set to begin this spring.
