<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:7 0 7 0;"><SPAN>BighornSummerConcentration is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing Summer Concentration Areas for Bighorn Sheep in Colorado. Summer Concentration Area is defined as those areas where bighorn sheep concentrate from mid-June through mid-August. High quality forage, security, and lack of disturbance are generally characteristic of these areas to meet the high energy demands of lactation and lamb rearing. </SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:7 0 7 0;"><SPAN>This information was derived from field personnel. A variety of data capture techniques were used including drawing on mylar overlays at 1:50,000 scale USGS county mapsheets and implementation of the SmartBoard Interactive Whiteboard using stand-up, real-time digitizing at various scales (Cowardin, M., M. Flenner. March 2003. Maximizing Mapping Resources. GeoWorld 16(3):32-35).</SPAN></P></DIV> |

Care should be taken in interpreting these data. Written documents may accompany this map and should be referenced. The information portrayed on these maps should not replace field studies necessary for more localized planning efforts. The data are gathered at a variety of scales; discrepancies may become apparent at larger scales. The areas portrayed here are graphic representations of phenomena that are difficult to reduce to two dimensions. Animal distributions are fluid; animal populations and their habitats are dynamic.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
