Abstract
The information presented in this appendix was compiled from responses to two separate forest carnivore questionnaires distributed to Forest Service Regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 10 in early 1993. Each region designated a primary contact to serve on the Habitat Conservation Assessment Management Team. It was the duty of each representative to provide and verify accuracy of data. Regional Management Team contacts queried National Forest wildlife biologists, state agency biologists, and various affiliated researchers to provide the data for the western Regions that are summarized in the following tables.
