Photo was taken on a north slope and depicts a mature sage- brush canopy, which offers abundant cover and structure important to wildlife that occupy sagebrush habitat. Photo taken by Jon â *-: Class 4: Greater than 15 Percent to 25 Percent Sagebrush Canopy Cover (Shrubland) Rangelands that exhibit a shrubland aspect are characteristic of this class (Figure 7). This class is capable of supporting the habitat needs of a variety of wildlife species that rely primarily on sagebrush and associated understory herbaceous species. Hanf et al. (1994) and Connelly et al. (2000) reported that sage-grouse nesting habitat needs and winter habitat needs can be served by sagebrush canopy cover within the 15 to 25 percent range. Depending on ecological site potential and past and present use, grass and forb cover can be highly Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Karl, Michael G; Sadowski, Jon; United States.
