The objectives of this Cooperative Agreement are: 1) Fit as many Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep in the Yosemite Herd as practicable with sufficient numbers of GPS satellite collars to yield adequate data over the 3-year period of this project and beyond; 2) Collect long-term data that will guide management actions to provide maximum protection of the Yosemite Herd and encourage population growth; 3) Increase public awareness and advocacy for protection of Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep by developing a publicly accessible website on which bighorn movements can be seen.
