| Ungulate Migrations of the Western United States | U.S. Geological Survey | U.S. Connectivity Policy & Law | 2020 | Report | Across the western United States, many ungulate herds must migrate seasonally to access resources and avoid harsh winter conditions. Because ... Read more > Across the western United States, many ungulate herds must migrate seasonally to access resources and avoid harsh winter conditions. Because these migration paths cover vast landscapes (in other words migration distances up to 150 miles [241 kilometers]), they are increasingly threatened by roads, fencing, subdivisions, and other development. Over the last decade, many new tracking studies have been conducted on migratory herds, and analytical methods have been developed that allow for population-level corridors and stopovers to be mapped and prioritized. < Show less |
