Bighorn sheep in the West face threats from M. ovi, a pathogen that causes respiratory disease. USGS scientists and graduate students at the Montana Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit in the Wildlife Biology Program at the University of Montana are examining how testing and removal of chronically M. ovi positive animals affect recruitment and survival rates.
