Description: This dataset (formerly known as the Sensitive Snake Species Range) isproduced for the Government of Alberta and is available to the general public. Please consult the Distribution Information of this metadata for the appropriate contact to acquire this dataset.TheSensitive Snake HibernaculaRange was delineated for prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis), bullsnake (Pituophis catenifer), western hognose snake (Heterodon nasicus)and eastern yellow-bellied racer (Coluber constrictor). A minimum convex polygon (MCP) was used to delineate a range based on observation records from Alberta's Fish and Wildlife Information Management System(FWMIS) and known snake hibernacula within Alberta. Additional considerations were used to further filter range boundaries after observation data were plotted. Habitat Suitability Indices of prairie rattlesnake was combined to identify suitablehibernacula siteswith the species ranges.Bio- and geophysical restrictions to species patterns (e.g., rivers, elevation, ecoregions) were used to refine ranges as appropriate. Once an MCP was adequately modified, its border was smoothed.In 2020, the Sensitive Snake Species Range layer name was changed to the Sensitive Snake Hibernaculum Rangeand included new information and areas.
