Two education and celebration events in Durango (Fort Lewis College for students and public at Double Tree) to inform re: risk to bighorn sheep due to domestic sheep grazing in or adjacent to high risk allotments AND to announce the compensated permit waiver of 10 allotments/101,000 acres by Etchart Livestock negotiated by NWF.
Reflection/Evaluation
Amazing speakers with tons of information shared, substantial fundraising for the “buyout,” scrumptious food and great company. Quite the celebration!!!
