Rangeland Monitoring for Sage-grouse videos

Conducting rangeland monitoring in sagebrush habitat assists in assessing whether intended rangeland goals are being achieved. It is also important to document conditions on the ground to inform grazing management decisions. Documenting successful sage-grouse conservation efforts is especially critical to landscape conservation efforts. Data collected can be used to monitor changes in habitat over time, often revealing trends.
