Michael Procko

I’m a PhD Student at Utah State University working with Dr. T.J. Clark-Wolf and Dr. Dan MacNulty. My research sits at the intersection of community ecology and population biology, where I’m investigating food web dynamics in the iconic wolf-elk-aspen system of Yellowstone National Park.

Previously, I was a Wildlife Ecologist with the Tulalip Tribes of Washington, a Research Scientist at the University of Washington, and I obtained my MSc in the Wildlife Coexistence Lab at the University of British Columbia. These roles provided me a wealth of experience in scientific research and allowed me to develop a strong passion for wildlife conservation and ecology. I also acquired my BA in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology from the University of Colorado, where I defended an honor’s thesis regarding wolf management in Yellowstone National Park.
