Mapping sage‐grouse fence‐collision risk: Spatially explicit models for targeting conservation implementation

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Recent research suggested greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) fence collision may be widespread, and fence‐marking methods have been developed for reducing prairie‐grouse collision in sagebrush‐steppe habitats. However,

A mobile tool for capturing greater sage‐grouse

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Capturing greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) using standard approaches can be challenging and inefficient, particularly in areas with relatively small populations and patchy habitat.

Free rein: Are feral horses competing with native ungulates in British Columbia?

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We investigated little‐studied feral horses in west‐central British Columbia, Canada, as a potential competitor for native moose and mule deer. We did not find strong evidence that feral horses exclude moose or deer from habitat or resources at a large landscape scale or smaller spatiotemporal patch scale.

Changes in Spatial Distribution and Abundance Together Determine Potential for Population Persistence for Greater Sage‐Grouse

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Population ecologists often focus on changes in the distribution and abundance of wildlife species, which are useful for trend analyses and status assessments. However, rarely are these responses evaluated simultaneously for a single species, despite their unique contributions to fully assess a species' viability.

Utilizing hunter harvest effort to survey for wildlife disease: A case study of West Nile virus in greater sage‐grouse

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) are highly susceptible to infection with West Nile virus (WNV), with substantial mortality reported in wild populations and in experimentally infected birds.

Integrating Ecosystem Resilience and Resistance Into Decision Support Tools for Multi-Scale Population Management of a Sagebrush Indicator Species

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Imperiled sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems of western North America are experiencing unprecedented conservation planning efforts. Advances in decision-support tools operationalize concepts of ecosystem resilience by quantitatively linking spatially ...

Supporting dryland restoration success with applied ecological forecasting of seeding outcomes

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration is increasingly used to sustain biodiversity and ecosystem services. In drylands of the western United States (US), post‐disturbance restoration often involves seeding treatments to promote the recovery of native plant communities. Spatial and temporal variability in environmental conditions influences plant

The influence of a conservation‐based grazing program on greater sage‐grouse habitat selection

Conservation Science and Practice
Understanding how vegetation management affects animals' habitat selection patterns is critical for comprehensive conservation planning. As part of a decade‐long study (2011–2019) of 486 adult female sage‐grouse in central Montana, we investigated how a ...

Comparison of 2 vegetation height methods for assessing greater sage‐grouse seasonal habitat

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
The 2015 Sage‐Grouse Habitat Assessment Framework (HAF) was developed to evaluate habitat quality for sage‐grouse (Centrocercus spp.), with the greater sage‐grouse (C.
