Bighorn Sheep Corridors, Columbia Plateau
- Description:
These data were provided by the WWHCWG for use in the Washington Habitat Connectivity Action Plan. The corridors are made up of modeled normalized least cost corridors (NLCC) for bighorn sheep (BHS) generated by the Washington Wildlife Habitat Connectivity Working Group (WWHCWG) Statewide Connectivity Assessment (WWHCWG 2010). The NLCC from the WWHCWG assessment were all reviewed by WDFW's species subject matter expert during the Washington Habitat Connectivity Action Plan review process, who identified which NLCCs are functional and eliminated NLCCs that they found either not to be functional (e.g., too long a connection for BHS) or not desirable (e.g., connecting populations with known disease transmission potential). The final selected corridors only include NLCCs that WDFW's expert flagged as functional and desirable.
