Sage Grouse Habitat for Wyoming at 1:100,000

Metadata record for data regarding sage grouse habitat in Wyoming provided by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department; link in record. This theme is polygon data that depicts five types of sagebrush habitats (sage-grouse habitats) for the state of Wyoming. These five attributes are sagebrush/ perennial grassland, perennial grasslands without sagebrush, annual grasslands with or without sagebrush, conifer/juniper encroachment areas, and non-sagebrush habitats. This mid-scale(1:100,000) evaluation process was designed to complement national (large-scale) sagebrush (sage-grouse) planning efforts and provided a step- down analysis to state level efforts. Information sources and assessment processes varied depending on data available and resource specialist participation for areas within the state. These reviews were intended to provide an understanding of how management activities within portions of the state fit in with broad- scale ecosystem and public land management.
