Rangelands banner

BLM's western rangelands are vast, grassy/scrub areas used as habitat by wild horses, burros, and a variety of wildlife, as well as for livestock grazing and a range of recreational pursuits. Such competing interests sometimes create user conflicts which, along with rangeland health, must be addressed by sound land management policies and guidelines, as provided by many of the following websites. Please also visit the webpages listed in other rangeland-related topics such as wild horses and burros, soils, riparian areas, and invasive species.
