Learn more about riparian habitat on largely private rangelands to increase species diversity and drought resilience in core sagebrush sagebrush
The western United States’ sagebrush country encompasses over 175 million acres of public and private lands. The sagebrush landscape provides many benefits to our rural economies and communities, and it serves as crucial habitat for a diversity of wildlife, including the iconic greater sage-grouse and over 350 other species.
Learn more about sagebrush habitat in Wyoming using a variety of techniques ranging from off-stream water and fencing to hand-built rock structures to in-stream engineering.
