Assessing disease risk at the wildlife-livestock interface: A study of Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep

2009-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Despite evidence that domestic sheep diseases threaten the persistence of bighorn sheep populations, the economic consequences of restricting domestic sheep grazing has polarized the debate, with some arguing that disease risk posed by domestic sheep has been exaggerated and grazing restrictions should be eased. We constructed a model to assess how different management strategies (grazing allotment closures, grazi...
