Interested in volunteering to help wildlife? Join Wyoming BHA in a fence project on Saturday August 12th. We will be lowering 1-2 miles of “drop fence” on BLM land in the Muddy Creek drainage south of Daniel. Some fences in the region have been converted to more wild-friendly drop fences so the wires can be lowered after cattle grazing and remain lowered until spring when grazing begins again.
Fences are one of the most notable barriers to ungulate migration in Wyoming. Thus, dropping the fence to near-ground level is beneficial to pronghorn, mule deer, and elk migrating through the area. It also benefits greater sage grouse which are commonly killed by mid-flight collisions with fences.
We will meet at 8:00am in the large gravel parking lot at the Daniel Junction gas station, then carpool or caravan to the project site (30+ minute drive). If you are coming up from Big Piney/Marbleton you may want to meet the caravan closer to the site. This will be about a 2-3 hour project plus travel time. High clearance, 4wd vehicles are recommended.
Contact Erik Kramer if you are interested in joining.
