Factors Affecting Gunnison Sage-grouse (Centrocercus minimus) Conservation in San Juan County, Utah Phoebe R. Prather Ph.D. Defense Department of Wildland Resources Utah State University Advisor: Dr. Terry A. Messmer Gunnison vs. Greater Sage-grouse Separated from Greater in 2000. Smaller: shorter tarsus, culmen and carpal measurements. Male mass 400 grams less than male Greater. Shorter retrices, more distinct barring. Considerably larger and thicker filoplumes. Differ in strutting displays. Distribution Conservation Efforts 1997: Gunnison Sage-grouse Priority Conservation Area. Conservation Study Area: contains year-round range (98% privately owned). Agriculture fields, grazed rangelands, fallow agriculture fields, CRP, sagebrush, pinyon-juniper and oak woodlands. Conservation Efforts SWOG formed in 1996 and published a local conservation plan in 2000. Rangewide Conservation Plan published in 2005. Identify and rank threats. Propose conservation strategies. Habitat Assessment Assessment of vegetation conditions of sagebrush habitats in Gunnison Sage-grouse Conservation Area. Determine if conditions meet criteria stated in Rangewide Plan. Assist managers in developing and prioritizing habitat restoration projects. Methods Occupied habitat: areas located within the CSA. Unoccupied habitat: areas that were historically inhabited or were near an area currently or historically inhabited by sage-grouse (CA and CCA). Methods Plotted historic and current lek sites (CSA). Buffered in 1,500m increments. Extended buffer to include unoccupied habitat (CCA). Total buffer 7,500m. Methods 1,000 points. Selected 150. Eliminated 6 points not in sagebrush (144, map). Field visit: eliminated 51 points (93). 39 unoccupied. 54 occupied. All breeding, summer/fall, and winter habitats in CSA. Methods Gunnison Sage-grouse Rangewide Steering Committee Structural Vegetation Collection Guidelines: Two 30-m transects. Daubenmire method. Percent cover and
