The Fraternity of the Desert
Bighorn - Project Information.
Water is often the most important missing element, but
cannot compensate for poor forage production or disease events that
lead to downturns in populations. It is important to note that when
conditions permit, these waters allow for bighorns and other wildlife
to make the best use of the remaining habitat available.
