The American West’s longest large mammal migration: clarifying and securing the common interest

Abstract: Over the last 10 years, conflict has grown over a 170-mile pronghorn antelope (Antilocapra americana) migration between Grand Teton National Park and the Upper Green River Basin in western Wyoming. Resolving conflict in the common interest is proving difficult. This movement is the longest mammal migration in the lower 48 states, spanning the jurisdiction of three federal agencies, three Wyoming counties, and over 40 private landowners. In addition, there are over ten non-governmental conservation organization… Show more

“…Research is also necessary to predict how climate change will affect the space‐use of migratory ungulates, especially given the limited resources available in conservation to develop and implement habitat protections. Furthermore, because ungulate migrations extend across complex social landscapes, future assessments should also engage social and policy scientists to integrate stakeholder knowledge and interests (Cherney and Clark ; Morse and Clark ). Indeed, the simple act of mapping migrations concerns some landowners, industry representatives, and local governments (https://bit.ly/32pj670), presumably due to a perception that local knowledge and interests may be excluded.…”

“…A fourth key element to conserving ungulate migrations is fostering greater local participation in conservation efforts (Cherney and Clark ). Local knowledge is important to understand migrations and the threats migratory ungulates face, and local and regional voices can influence land‐use and wildlife‐management decisions.…”

“…From a simple "low-stakes" activity, stakeholders can become accustomed to operating in an improved governance style, and can later apply lessons learned to broader, bigger problems (Cherney & Clark, 2009). Prototyping "is a proven means to enhance performance in complex, challenging tasks" (Clark, Backhouse, & Reading, 1995, p. 50).…”

“…suggest that such community-based decision-making initiatives may represent the beginning of a transition from traditional top-down scientific management to a new form of adaptive governance. As community members demand more say in the decisions that affect them, and evidence of the failures of scientific management continues to mount, community-based collaborative initiatives are an appealing alternative (Cherney and Clark 2008;McLaughlin et al 2005). There is, however, a risk that collaborative decision making may produce ''lowest common denominator'' decisions, or that the decisions will simply reflect status quo power relationships (Peterson et al 2005;Gunton and Day 2003;Pelletier et al 1999).…”
