Crew 1
Buffalo BLM, Devon Energy
Project Type: Wildlife Guzzler Construction
Project Sponsor: Devon Energy and the BLM
Crew One was in Buffalo for our annual Devon Energy project, continuing a 19-year partnership with the organization. With support from Devon, the crew addressed wildlife water issues by constructing two guzzlers on remote BLM land! These guzzlers provide water sources for wildlife, specifically elk, helping to increase their habitat utilization as well as prevent transmission of communicable diseases on rangeland.
The crew spent their off day exploring the Big Horn Mountains!
All Said and Done:
- Constructed 2 Wildlife Guzzlers in partnership with the BLM and Devon Energy
