Description
This initiative will enhance water resources for livestock and wildlife and support the recovery of key species, including the chiricahua leopard frog and pronghorn antelope. Key activities involve installing storage tanks and drinkers near existing stock ponds, cleaning the south hummel tank to increase its capacity, and erecting fencing to create refugia for the chiricahua leopard frog. By improving water management, the project will bolster agricultural productivity and increase resilience against drought while benefiting the local economy through the use of regional contractors. Expected outcomes include improved habitat quality for federally listed species and enhanced water management practices. Collaborative efforts among the U.S. Fish and wildlife service, state agencies, local landowners, and stakeholders are essential to achieving these goals, contributing to significant strides in ecological restoration and conservation in southern arizona.
