TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) — For years domestic sheep have grazed on public lands in Eastern Idaho as part of the Sheep Experiment Station.
Now, conservation groups are attempting to bring a stop to the practice, citing the impacts on protected wildlife in the Centennial Mountains.
“It’s a critical wildlife corridor for grizzly bears, wolves and other wildlife and they’re grazing sheep on public lands up there,” says Center for Biological Diversity Attorney Andrea Zaccardi. “It’s a problem because it creates an easy attractant for grizzly bears and wolves for sources of prey.”
