Wyoming Game and Fish Department wildlife management coordinators:
Laramie Region - "Shirley Basin looks dismal"
Green River - "Pronghorn also exhibited poorer body condition and poor fawn survival likely related to the drought." "Browse production was less than 25 percent of normal."
Casper - "fawn ratios were the lowest ever recorded in many herd units and newborn mortality was extremely high due to drought conditions"
Cody - "although the drought has not caused a significant increase in mortality or stress for deer and pronghorn in the southern Bighorn Basin, more animals were using private agricultural lands than in previous years."
