Abstract:

Justification of canal animal protection measures has been, to a degree, driven by environmental and social constraints and as a result, large expenditures of funds to protect ungulates have occurred on irrigation projects in the west. The authors have recommended a procedure for use in the decision-making process toward the construction of these measures.
