Who we serve
We use the newest genetic technologies to assist wildlife managers and researchers.
Be Batty
If you are a wildlife management department, conservation organization, or university researcher, we can identify bat assemblages at roost sites.
Go Global
If you are a wildlife management department, conservation organization, or university researcher, we can identify diets of herbivores and insectivores.
Bridging the Gap
If you are a Department of Transportation, we can tell you whether federally-listed bat species use bridges that are scheduled for repair or replacement.
Get Wind of This
If you are a wind energy company, we can identify bat mortalities to the species level even from degraded tissue for accurate information in your reports.

Walker Lab Testing
Species From Feces provides taxonomy from trace DNA to managing wildlife responsibly.
Train
We provide consultation, a sampling kit, and the information you need to maximize and preserve DNA.
Sequence
Our researchers are trained to sequence from complex samples and trace DNA, using leading genetic technologies.
