Project Activity: September 12th, we will removing trees from the fence line. September 20th, We will removing old four strand non wildlife friendly fence. We will remove ~2 miles complementary to the last two miles of fence back in march.

Pronghorn Benefits: This effort is located in the heart of pronghorn habitat in Unit 18A. For five years cooperators have been removing page wire fence and modifying portions of fence with “Pronghorn Friendly” 4-strand fence. Fencing efforts are happening in conjunction with fawn enhancement, water distribution improvements, and habitat treatments. The AAF has planned to continue with 8 fence removal projects over the next 4-years to accomplish this work.

Currently there are 27 pronghorn radio-collared, which are providing invaluable information on the barriers much of the current fencing is creating for resident pronghorn.

Meals: Please provide your own lunch to eat in the field on Saturday. AAF will provide field water on the project day and dinner for all volunteers on Friday and Saturday nights and continental breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
