Sublette antelope migration
corridor moves forward
CHEYENNE - The Wyoming Game and
Fish Commission voted during its March
meeting in Pinedale to identify the Sublette
antelope migration corridor and directed the
Wyoming Game and Fish Department to
advance in the designation process.
Game and Fish wildlife managers are now
tasked with drafting a biological risk assessment
in collaboration with local governments,
stakeholders and affected landowners.
The public will have the opportunity to comment
on the assessment. Once completed,
the Commission will be asked to vote on
whether to recommend a formal designation
to the governor.
" The department is committed to monitoring
and considering federal agency
actions, including the finalization of Bureau
of Land Management's Sage Grouse Plan
amendment and the Rock Springs Resource
10 | May 2024
Management Plan. Our timeline for completing
the risk assessment may be adjusted
to ensure these federal actions are considered
in our analysis, " said Game and Fish Director
Brian Nesvik.
With the identification of the corridor,
additional funding opportunities become
available for conservation-based projects
on private and public lands to treat invasive
annual grasses, improve range fences to wildlife-friendly
standards and other proactive
management actions.
" Identification of corridors allows us to
use science to highlight some of the most
important pronghorn habitats so that all
users can implement practices to conserve
these areas, " Nesvik said.
Game and Fish wildlife managers and
research partners have collected an unprecedented
amount of GPS data from more
than 415 collared pronghorn from the Sublette
herd. The data has provided insight
into the movements of pronghorn as they
migrate from their summer ranges in the
foothills of the Wyoming Range, Bondurant
and Jackson Hole areas to lower-elevation
winter ranges near Pinedale, Green River
and Rock Springs.
For some pronghorn, this annual 360-mile
round-trip movement represents the longest
recorded antelope migration in the West.
