Working wildlands
Rangeland management and applied science for conservation ranching and productive, healthy working landscapes in the American West.
All of my applied science is on working wildlands. I’ve focused much of it on strategic grazing management and stockmanship for rangelands, and how those relate to human-carnivore coexistence.
