Volunteers from Idaho, Utah and Wyoming removed 1.25 miles of old fencing clearing the way for wildlife to more freely pass through Togwotee Pass in northwest Wyoming. The gathering is a team effort dating back a decade.
“It’s hard to believe for us, but this is the tenth year in a row working with Bob Joslin and the Red Canyon Chapter of the RMEF to facilitate a Shoshone National Forest habitat project,” Joy Bannon, Wyoming Wildlife Federation policy director, told Buckrail. “We are really looking forward to keeping this volunteer day going into future years.”
