Wyoming is currently experiencing a much more mild winter this 2024 season. It is a welcome relief after the harsh winter we experienced in 2023 when we saw severe pronghorn antelope deaths in most of the entire southwestern corner of Wyoming. Although we had a hard winter in the rest of the state, the death loss for antelope in central Wyoming was significantly less.

Had feed grounds not been in place, we would have seen even more devastating effects on all the wildlife. Elk would have infiltrated the mule deer winter ranges and impact the antelope herds as well. It remains our belief that these grounds need protected and maintained.
When the topic of feed grou[...]
