A 14-year study by Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists in Oregon found that rangelands that have been grazed by cattle recover from fires more effectively than rangelands that have been protected from livestock. These surprising findings could impact management strategies for native plant communities where ecological dynamics are shifting because of climate change, invasive weeds and other challenges.
The Idaho Rangeland Resource Commission and Idaho Fish & Game partnered to create a new educational video about hunting on rangelands. This video includes basic knowledge that hunters should have before venturing out to hunt on either public or private rangeland.
Idaho Fish & Game has a great tool to use before you leave for your next hunting trip. Please take the time to learn about theland ownershipand always ask first for permission to hunt on private land--its the law.
Nearly 80% of Idaho rangelands are publically managed. These lands are managed for multiple use. Millions of acres are available for livestock grazing, outdoor recreation, and sight-seeing opportunities. Working together we can all enjoy these beautiful areas. If you are out and see one of these signs, please take the time to read and follow the instructions.
The Care and Share information and education campaign was initiated by the Bureau of Land Management Shoshone Field Office and the Idaho Rangeland Resource Commission (IRRC) to prevent and reduce conflicts between ranchers and outdoor recreationists on public and private lands.
