1 1 Workshop Goals Present the results of the Survey of Rancher Opinions about Wildlife and Jaguar Habitat Management Provide information about the jaguar Critical Habitat Designation Learn about how folks think about ranch management benefits to conservation Discuss innovative ways to diversify ranch income

2 2 Workshop Agenda Review of Workshop Goals and Survey Results The Endangered Species Act and Jaguar Critical Habitat Designation Work Session on Your Views, Ideas, and Goals Discussion about Conservation Incentives

Survey Results

4 4 Survey Goals Understand your opinions about wildlife management and jaguar issues – What you are already doing for wildlife – Jaguar Critical Habitat concerns – Expected impacts of critical habitat on your operations

5 5 Survey Goals Introduce basic concepts of conservation incentives and get your feedback – What types of conservation incentives are you currently using? – Are there approaches to incentives that are more or less attractive? – How do incentives impact your thinking about other management issues?

6 6 Survey Results All results will be available to you at the same time they are available to FWS – Short preliminary report in your packet – Full analysis report and articles coming – Workshop report – Additional publications on conservation incentives and ecosystem services

7 7 Survey Results: Demographics 112 Responses! - 41% Response Rate 64% over 60 years old, 13% 49 or younger Most have been on the same ranch for at least 20 years Nearly all are from multi-generational ranching families Operation sizes are well distributed Most have income sources away from the ranch

8 8 Survey Results: Management Current Management – Most common management practices: Grazing (85%) and Drought Management Plans (57%) Rotational grazing (86%) Stock ponds/tanks (82%) Range monitoring (80%) – Least common management practices: Stream fencing (8%) Prescribed fire (14%)

9 9 Survey Results: Jaguars

10 Survey Results: Critical Habitat Impacts

11 Survey Results: Depredation Most common management response is lion hunting – also the most common concern 64% interested in a compensation fund Look for info on upcoming depredation workshop

12 Survey Results: Conservation Incentives

13 Survey Results: Conservation Incentives Interest decreases if there is an increased chance of finding an ESA listed species Interest decreases if funded by the Federal Government, increases if privately funded Safe harbor alleviates some concerns, but not all – what about your neighbor? Biggest concerns are limiting management flexibility and permit restrictions

14 Survey Results: Next Steps Continuing data analysis Full report coming this spring – will include survey results and additional feedback from these workshops You will receive the report at the same time as the Fish and Wildlife Service We hope to continue to work with you on these issues
