This grant, funded in support of a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) study, aims to significantly advance Sonoran Pronghorn conservation. It seeks to expand aerial telemetry flights from bimonthly to weekly, enhancing data collection for evaluating the effects of human activity on these animals. Concurrently, the grant will facilitate the enlargement of three existing water catchments within the refuge. This crucial infrastructure development will establish dependable, year-round water sources for the pronghorn, reducing or eliminating the need for supplemental water hauling. The overall objective is to bolster understanding and ensure the long-term sustainability of the Sonoran Pronghorn population.
