The study was intended to contrast differences between the inside and the outside of long-term cattle-grazing exclosures, and to determine the overall suitability of LEPC habitat in the vicinity of these exclosures. LEPC habitat treated by disk-plowing in recent (2009) exclosures was also evaluated for the effects of this treatment on habitat suitability for LEPC.born digitalreportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
