Tulsa District USACE biologists record and measure a beetle captured during a recent survey conducted at Fort Gibson Waterfowl Refuge in Eastern Oklahoma before releasing it back into its habitat. The team performs surveys for the beetles twice a year. Concerted efforts of multiple agencies, including USACE and DoD, under the guidance of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have been instrumental in its gradual recovery. These combined efforts have led to the beetle's status changing from endangered to threatened. (Photo contributed by Jason Person, USACE biologist)
