Douglas, C. L. (1976). Coordination of bighorn research and management in Joshua Tree National Monument. Transactions of the North American Wild Sheep Conference.

Abstract

In Joshua Tree National Monument, California, decreases in annual precipitation over the last 20 years have caused a large decline in available water resources for bighorn sheep. Human presence worsens the problem when campers and hikers keep sheep away from waterholes and cause general harassment. Management actions to improve conditions for bighorn sheep are discussed.
