AquaticCrucialHabitatPriorities

This data set provides the location of habitat priority areas in Wyoming developed as part of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department Statewide Habitat Plan (SHP, revised November 2025). Priority areas were developed by regional teams led by aquatic and terrestrial biologists. Three sets of habitat priority areas were developed in each region: "crucial" areas, "restoration" areas and "connectivity" areas. This data set contains only the aquatic crucial priority areas. See Statewide Habitat Plan 2025 for explanations of crucial, restoration, and connectivity. Short narratives available with the datasets summarize habitat values/issues, elaborate on why each area was selected, identify associated wildlife species, and identify solutions or actions to address the values/issues. Habitat priority areas are updated and published annually on January 31, as detailed in the SHP.
