Migrations

Many Pronghorn rely on migratory behaviors to survive. These seasonal movements allow them to escape harsh winter conditions and to follow seasonal nutrition across the landscape. Some migrations are hundreds of miles covered in just a few days, while others are much shorter distances. Yet other pronghorn herds are deemed resident herds that stay in the same general area year round.

Migrations have been identified across North America through the use of GPS technology. From 200-mile migrations in Wyoming, to northern most ranges in Saskatchewan and Alberta, and in states like Montana, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah. Pronghorn utilize migrations to survive.

But migrating pronghorn are facing growing challenges. Whether it’s interstates or highways, poorly sited industry development, or navigating thousands of fences along their migration route. These obstacles are limiting their movement needs and negatively impacting or limiting their populations.

Pronghorn and their habitat need our help.

Our Mission is to enhance pronghorn populations and habitats through advocacy, stewardship, stakeholder partnerships, and our hunting heritage
