Dear Mr. Druker:
Enclosed is a copy of Lamb Production and Survival in Lambing Areas and Summer
Ranges of a Bighorn Sheep Population Wintering on Big Creek In Central Idaho. This
report is a summary of my findings from the work that I completed during the summer of
2001 on bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis Canadensis) in the Frank ChurchRiver of No
Return Wilderness. It will aid in the future management of bighorn sheep in Central
Idaho and adds new information to the established baseline data of this population.
Funding for this report was approved on October 18, 2001 by your department. I
completed the report on schedule and met all my proposed objectives within the allotted
budget of $5,998. A slightly revised version of this report will also be submitted to Jeff
Rholman of the Idaho Department of Fish and Game; Janette Pope of The Charles
DeVlieg Foundation; the Dean of the College of Natural Resources at the University of
Idaho, Jim and Holly Akenson, Managers of the University of Idahos Taylor Ranch; and
will be submitted as an output for the fulfillment of my senior thesis requirement under
Dr. Lissette Waits and Dr. Jim Peek.
As promised in my proposal, this report includes information on the lamb production and
survival of bighorn sheep in Big Creek during the summer of 2001. This information is
then compared to lamb survival and production during the documented Pasteurella
related die-off in 1989 and 1990. This report also includes an assessment of the possible
shift in lambing area used between past a current studies and a discussion on the possible
factors affecting the observed lack of lamb mortality. Through this research, I found that
while lamb production was similar in 2001 to production in 1989-90, lamb survival
through the summer was significantly different. This suggests that the Big Creek bighorn
sheep population is not currently experiencing the affects of the Pasteurella bacteria that
was so devastating in 1989-90. It also suggests that the recovery time from a Pasteurella
related die-off is greater than 10 years as this population is not yet stabilizing. This report
also outlines recommendations for continued long-term monitoring of the population.

[The Executive Summary is a short summary of the entire paperincluding the product
or service that you are justifying and the final recommendation(s). This section is written
for people who do not have time to read the entire report. It should not be over a

Your sections should be formatted with section headings. Use sections moderately and
ensure that the organization is clear.
This is where you start your report. Remember, you indent the first lines of
paragraphs one tab space. You want to single space this work. To do this, go to Format,
Paragraph, Spacing, choose Single, then click OK. This automatically single-spaces your
paper. You will also use 12-point font. Use a consistent font that is easy to read, like
Times New Roman, Arial, Tahoma.
Remember, each new paragraph is indented one tab space to show the reader that
you have started a new paragraph. Make sure you spell and grammar check your work.
Tools, Spelling and Grammar will get you to the checker. You want to check Grammar
and Style because this will show you all mistakes. To change this, go to Tools, Options,
Spelling and Grammar, choose Grammar and Style, and then click OK. Spelling errors
are underlined in red and grammar and style errors are in green.

**This is what a reference page looks like. Remember, you will still double space, and
you will still use 12 point font. The only difference is that you will alphabetize the
References by the first line and you will use hanging indent for the second lines. To
use hanging indent, you will move the bottom of the ruler to the .5 space (the larger
line between 0 and 1). The top of the ruler stays at zero.
