Description
See also: Central Coast Rangeland Coalition, Sustainable Human Systems
Wildlife are home on Central Coast Rangelands – how can we help wildlife, especially deer, thrive alongside profitable livestock operations? In the fall of 2013, the Central Coast Rangeland Coalition discussed managing wildlife, with a focus on deer. The usual mix of lands managers, livestock operators, conservationists, scientists, educators, land owners, agency personnel, and outdoors people attended and the group heard from a variety of perspectives on this subject, which is important to the group’s vision of sustaining vibrant human and ecological communities on the Central Coast’s rangelands.
Goal
To promote land management practices that provide for both the enhancement of ecological values and the preservation of Central California’s historic ranching traditions.
Objectives
Increased knowledge about how rangeland management practices affect deer populations
Increased knowledge about how rangeland management practices affect other wildlife populations
Increased knowledge of the potential economic value of game species, and learn ways to capitalize on that value.
Topics Discussed
Deer biology
Deer habitat management
Wildlife-livestock conflicts on rangelands
Social and economic dimensions of rangeland wildlife management
