MIC Lecture Series: Jon Blanc – Guzzlers 101

Guzzlers are a type of water development that provides water for wildlife. They are a tool to mitigate negative impacts, habitat fragmentation and loss, drought, and human disturbance. Providing water improves occupied habitats and reduces the need to move to other areas seeking water. The BLM Moab Field Office wildlife program helps maintain more than 40 guzzlers that benefit bighorn sheep and pronghorn antelope. Jon Blanc is going to discuss the importance of guzzlers, how they're built, and more!
