The Bureau of Land Management, Wyoming State Office, is offering this cooperative agreement to the University of Wyoming for pronghorn research. This grant is for the purpose of evaluating how fences, oil and natural gas fields, and wind energy development influence pronghorn populations. The research will specifically focus on pronghorn utilizing crucial winter ranges and yearlong habitats in Wyoming. The project is anticipated to span three years, with potential for continued funding beyond that period based on satisfactory progress towards program goals and the availability of funds. This initiative aims to understand and mitigate the impacts of energy infrastructure on these vital wildlife populations.
