The authors used a least cost corridor analysis to identify linkages between tortoise conservation areas. In this output, the least cost corridor analysis did not include OHV or Dept of Defense lands as potential desert tortoise linkage habitats due to the multiple uses and potential threats to desert tortoises in these areas.
