2023 MDD event allocated $100,000 to Iron Mountain Juniper Control Treatment Project
The Iron Mountain Juniper Control is one of the individual projects under the umbrella of the Southwest Wyoming Mule Deer Habitat effort. The project is located in the Iron Mountain portion of the Little Mountain Ecosystem within the South Rock Spring Mule Deer Herd Unit. The project aims to maintain the integrity and value of sagebrush-grassland and mixed mountain shrub habitats for mule deer and other wildlife by removing encroaching juniper trees. Treatment results are expected to maintain a blend of quality deer feeding areas in proximity to bedding and security cover provided by established juniper woodlands. Project implementation will involve crews hand cutting and piling juniper trees on 1,100 acres of encroached shrub habitat. The piled trees will be allowed months to dry, and fire crews will then conduct prescribed slash pile burns during the winter months. Juniper treatments are planned to begin during the 2024 field season. To date, these funds have leverage matching funds from other entities. The project will now be doubled in size with $1.2 million being allocated.

2023 MDD event allocated $46,900 to US189 South Kemmerer Highway Wildlife Crossing Project
Mule deer and pronghorn are negatively impacted along this stretch of Highway 189. This conclusion is backed up through vehicle collision reports from WYDOT, and these movements are exhibited from collared mule deer, both from the Uinta and Wyoming Range mule deer herds. The right-of-way (ROW) fencing along Highway 189 is almost exclusively net-wire which creates a movement barrier for pronghorn. This project will promote connectivity by benefiting migration patterns along with protecting wildlife on winter range. This project has now been fully funded.
