Recovery strategy for the greater short-horned lizard [Ottawa] : Environment Canada, 2015. v, 45 p. : fig., photograph, maps, tables. Species at Risk Act recovery strategy series Issued also in French under title: Programme de rétablissement du grand iguane à petites cornes (Phrynosoma hernandesi) au Canada. Includes bibliographical references (p. 28-32). The Greater Short-horned Lizard was designated Endangered in Canada in 2007 due to ongoing threats and its small and fragmented distribution in Canada. Threats faced by the Greater Short-horned Lizard include: conversion of native habitat to industrial infrastructure, creation of roads in native habitat, dams and irrigation development, conversion of native habitat to crop and forage production, invasion and establishment of exotic plants, inclement or extreme weather conditions, mortality from traffic and pets due to urban expansion, mortality from oil spills, and collection. Recovery of this species is biologically and technically feasible. The population and distribution objective for the Greater Short-horned Lizard is to maintain populations in all of the critical habitat polygons within the 8 currently known areas of occupancy of the species plus any new populations discovered in the future. Broad strategies to achieve recovery include: (1) habitat assessment, management, conservation and protection; (2) monitoring and assessment; (3) research; and (4) communication, collaboration and engagement. One or more Action Plans for the Greater Short-horned Lizard will be completed by 2018. gccst Endangered species gccst Reptiles gccst Nature conservation Canada. Environment Canada.
