Abstract
  • Western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) has been actively invading the shrub steppe community for the past 120 years. Active fire suppression, overstocking of livestock in the late 1800's, along with a wetter than normal period in the latter half of the 19th century, has allowed juniper to encroach into areas where it was formally excluded. Invasive western juniper communities are continuing to reduce and replace the shrub steppe communities and thus reduce habitat and suitable forage for wildlife and other rangeland species. This project is designed as both a habitat restoration and fuels reduction project that will help restore vegetative composition and structure to the shrub steppe community by the cutting and removing of western juniper.
