Video: The pronghorn of the Northern Great Plains
Dec 19th, 2011 by wwftravel
The pronghorn faces many challenges—both natural and manmade—during its seasonal migration from Saskatchewan, Canada to Montana. It is the only large mammal in the southern half of North America exhibiting long-distance migration, one of the most dramatic, yet imperiled, biological phenomena.
WWF’s Dennis Jorgensen was recently featured on an episode of the PBS series This American Land, discussing WWF’s efforts to create large and uninterrupted conservation areas in the Northern Great Plains for the pronghorn (beginning at minute 17).
Travel to the Northern Great Plains during WWF’s Exploring Montana’s Prairies tour, scheduled for June 16 – 24, 2012.
