Additional Information
Purpose | The dataset was developed to coordinate and maintain the distribution of bighorn and thinhorn sheep in BC based on historical knowledge and population monitoring data. This dataset is intended to:
|
Data Quality | The data does not include specific occurrence records of bighorn and thinhorn sheep in the province, rather it shows their generalized distribution.
|
Lineage Statement | The dataset was built using core home range data and then generalized to include additional areas beyond the core use areas. |
