Wildlife Habitats in Managed Rangelands--The Great Basin of Southeastern Oregon. Management Practices and Options

摘要

Management practices and options to provide habitat for wildlife in the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon deal with both vegetation treatment and protection, livestock management, maintenance or distribution of water developments protection of wildlife areas through road closures or fencing, and direct manipulation of wildlife through hunting, trapping, or other means. The chapter deals primarily with livestock management in relationship to wildlife and wildlife habitat. Included are discussions of ecological status (range condition), livestock management, multiple-use options for each species featured in previous chapters (trout, sage grouse, pronghorn, mule deer, and bighornsheep), and diversity.
