Challenging conventional views on the elevational limits of pronghorn habitat.

The article challenges traditional views on pronghorn habitat by highlighting the use of high-elevation summer ranges in the Carter Mountain area of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem in Wyoming. Through GPS tracking, researchers found that some pronghorn migrate to alpine meadows and plateaus above 3000m, a behavior previously considered anomalous. The study raises questions about the processes that generate and maintain diversity in animal movement tactics, emphasizing the need for further research to understand the implications of pronghorn using high-elevation habitats. The article acknowledges the Indigenous communities with cultural and spiritual ties to the region, respecting their connection to the land. [Extracted from the article]
