Philip R. Gould

Philip R. Gould studies the ecology and conservation of amphibians, reptiles, fish, and small mammals, with a strong focus on salamanders, turtles, and other freshwater or forest-dwelling species. His work often examines how habitat conditions, disturbance (such as wildfire or land use), and human influence affect where these animals live and how their populations change over time. This research is relevant to students interested in wildlife monitoring methods, habitat management, and conservation of vulnerable or endangered species in North American ecosystems.

Publication output has been modest but fairly steady over the last decade, with a slight increase in activity from 2021 to 2024 following a gap in 2018.
