Genetic Structure Of The Big Summit Herd And Neighboring Wild Horse Populations Inhabiting Herd Management Areas Of Oregon, Ketaki Deshpande, Evelyn Perez, Natalie Leyva, Merly Suarez, Deetta K. Mills
Genetic Structure Of The Big Summit Herd And Neighboring Wild Horse Populations Inhabiting Herd Management Areas Of Oregon, Ketaki Deshpande, Evelyn Perez, Natalie Leyva, Merly Suarez, Deetta K. Mills
Western North American Naturalist
Feral horses roaming North America are distinct not only because of their acclimatization to the wild but also because of their diversified ancestry. The wild horses inhabiting the Ochoco National Forest near Prineville, Oregon, are one of the remaining wild mustang herds and are protected by the Wild Horse and Burro Acts of 1971 and 1978. With deterioration of their rangeland, drought, vegetation conditions, human encroachment, fencing off of grazing lands, competition with wildlife, and other livestock grazing on public lands, a critical balance between conserving the natural ecology of rangelands and protecting and managing the wild horses needs to …
Habitat Characteristics And Selection By Ornate Box Turtles In The Sandhills Of South Dakota, Daniel W. Uresk, Alessandra Higa
Habitat Characteristics And Selection By Ornate Box Turtles In The Sandhills Of South Dakota, Daniel W. Uresk, Alessandra Higa
Western North American Naturalist
The ornate box turtle (Terrapene ornata Agassiz) is a species of greatest conservation need in South Dakota. Habitat loss through agricultural development and fragmentation is the main threat to the species throughout its range, which extends from Wisconsin and northern Indiana through the central Great Plains, and from southern South Dakota to Arizona, northern Mexico, and the Gulf Coast of Texas. The objectives of this study were to determine the ornate box turtle’s preferred vegetation characteristics (microhabitat) compared to the available habitat (macrohabitat) on the Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota Sandhills region, during 2010–2011. In both years, using a …
Translocation Of Boreal Toad (Anaxyrus Boreas Boreas) Into Two Springs In The Grouse Creek Mountains, Utah, Including Demographic Observations, Paul D. Thompson
Translocation Of Boreal Toad (Anaxyrus Boreas Boreas) Into Two Springs In The Grouse Creek Mountains, Utah, Including Demographic Observations, Paul D. Thompson
Western North American Naturalist
The Boreal Toad (Anaxyrus boreas boreas) is widely distributed in western North America and has declined throughout portions of the Rocky Mountains. One mechanism to expand populations is to translocate toads into unoccupied habitats. Wild-captured juvenile (n = 229) and subadult/adult (n = 42) Boreal Toads were translocated into 2 unoccupied spring-fed ponds located near 10 known breeding populations in the Grouse Creek Mountains, northwestern Utah. Boreal Toad egg strands were observed at one pond in 8 of 9 years following the last translocation of toads (n = 1–5 egg strands deposited per year) and …

Population Sizes, Rhinocyllus Conicus Use, And Patterns Of Genetic Variation Of Cirsium Ownbeyi, A Rare Native Thistle, In Wyoming, F. Leland Russell, Robby L. Mcminn, Lauren A. Konrade, James B. Beck
Western North American Naturalist
Cirsium ownbeyi is a habitat-specific, endemic, polycarpic thistle in northwest Colorado, northeast Utah, and southwest Wyoming. In 1998, seven C. ownbeyi populations, which ranged from 4 to >30,000 plants, were known from Wyoming. The population genetics of C. ownbeyi and the threat posed by an exotic flower head–feeding weevil, Rhinocyllus conicus, in Wyoming are unknown. Between 2014 and 2016, we visited Wyoming C. ownbeyi populations to determine (1) changes in population sizes since 1998, (2) extent of R. conicus use, and (3) amount and distribution of genetic variation within and between populations. We quantified densities of plants within populations …

Size-Specific Fate And Survival Of June Sucker Chasmistes Liorus Mictus In Utah Lake, Utah, Chase A. Ehlo, Wesley J. Goldsmith, Brian R. Kesner, Paul C. Marsh
Size-Specific Fate And Survival Of June Sucker Chasmistes Liorus Mictus In Utah Lake, Utah, Chase A. Ehlo, Wesley J. Goldsmith, Brian R. Kesner, Paul C. Marsh
Western North American Naturalist
The June Sucker Chasmistes liorus mictus is a large-bodied catostomid endemic to Utah Lake, Utah. It is a federally listed endangered species, and one component to its recovery is a stocking program with a target of releasing 2.8 million fish averaging 200 mm long. Because size is implicated as a factor in poststocking survival of western native fishes, particularly in the presence of nonnative fishes, over a 4-year period a combination of telemetry and remote sensing was used to demonstrate size-specific poststocking survival of June Sucker in Utah Lake. A total of 88 June Sucker were released with acoustic tags …
