- Abstract:
-
Data was acquire during aerial and ground surveys conducted
by Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks from 1989 to 2001 (not inclusive)in
Sheep District 213 and Deer/Elk Districts 214,291,212. Sheep Districts do not
necessarily coincide with the boundaries of other species.
These aerial surveys are conducted annually to count and classify
Bighorn sheep in the area.
Data are used by Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks in their management
responsibilities to set hunting seasons, determine
population trends, and identify critical habitats.
Observations were recorded on data forms and locations
either plotted on USFS Maps (Deerlodge National Forest) or
recorded by specific location.
- Purpose:
-
The purpose of the project is to digitize existing
wildlife data for use in the Natural Resource Damage
Program. The data is intended to aid in NRDP project
planning and implementation by identifying key wildlife habitats.
