Critical Habitat - The Importance of the Boise Foothills to Winter Wildlife

Hosted by the Foothills Learning Center - Adult Education Series

Come and learn about the importance of our Boise Foothills and open space to wildlife. Krista Muller, Boise River Wildlife Management Area manager and regional biologist for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, will talk about the importance of the Wildlife Management Area to wintering mule deer and elk. She will also tell us about the State Hwy 21 wildlife underpass and how its creation has helped these  animals. We’ll look at maps and discuss the critical connections between high and low elevation habitats and hear about the inherent management challenges and successes.
