Life in the Land: The Big Hole Valley - Montana, full film

Описание: The Big Hole Watershed in Montana is an expanse of mostly intact grasslands, sage steppe, and forested mountains that host a diversity of wildlife, from sage grouse to pronghorn, and waterways that are key fish habitat. A large portion of the Big Hole River runs through working rangelands, and the fly fishing on this river attracts people from all over the world, making agriculture and recreation the driving forces of the local communities here. Find out how people representing a diversity of needs within a watershed are coming together to benefit all life here within the land, water, and communities, and how this is building resiliency throughout droughts and other pressures. This film features the work of the Big Hole Watershed Committee. Learn more about them and find out how to support their work: https://bhwc.org/ ‪@BigHoleWatershedCommittee‬ .
