Meetings will focus on comingling of wild and domestic sheep
BOZEMAN — A series of free, public meetings will be held in Montana communities in April and May to discuss the Wild and Domestic Sheep Comingling Project. The initiative studies the risks of contact between bighorn sheep and domestic sheep and goats and explores tools to maintain effective separation between species to mitigate or prevent disease-related issues.
The meetings will be hosted by Montana State University Extension in collaboration with biologists from Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
“Our meetings embrace a participatory, transparent research model, inviting all stakeholders to co-produce solutions,” said Jared Beaver, MSU Extension wildlife specialist.
