A Survey of the Vascular Plants and Birds of Little Bighorn National Battlefield

Bock JH and Bock CE. 2006. A Survey of the Vascular Plants and Birds of Little Bighorn National Battlefield. Boulder, CO

The following report on vegetation and birds at the Little Bighorn National Battlefield includes three parts. The first is an annotated flora, based on a compilation of existing reports and on original field surveys. The second is an annotated checklist of birds seen at the Battlefield, based on original observations gathered in 1985-1986 and in 2002-2006. The third is a description of vegetative cover at the Battlefield, based on comparative analyses of data from 25 sampling plots, originally established and sampled in 1984-1986 and re-sampled in 2003. We also include in the final section an overall assessment of the condition of Battlefield vegetation and what we perceive to be issues of continuing and future management concern, including fire, invasive exotics, and the impacts of tourism and archaeological exploration.
