The Dept. of Zoology and Physiology was the largest academic department at the University of Wyoming and has collaborated with the National Park Service; the Wyoming Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit and the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. The University's location near several mountain ranges and national parks provided a unique opportunity for zoological and physiological study. The department managed field stations in Jackson Hole and a research station at the AMK ranch in Grand Teton Park to foster research in the National Parks of the Rocky Mountain Region. Student and faculty research projects at these sites included fish culture, animal behavior, endocrinology and environmental physiology. Researchers in the Zoology Department studied antelope, deer, elk, bear, beaver, badgers, coyotes, ground squirrels and birds.
