Black-tailed Prairie Dog Distribution Sample Clauses

Black-tailed Prairie Dog Distribution. The historic range of the black-tailed prairie dog included portions of 11 states, Canada, and Mexico. Today, the range occurs from extreme south-central Canada to northeastern Mexico and from approximately the 98th meridian west to the Rocky Mountains. The species is currently present in 10 states (Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming), but has been extirpated from Arizona. Range contractions have occurred in the southwestern portion of the species’ range in Arizona, western New Mexico, and western Texas; and in the eastern portion of the species’ range in Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Texas. These range contractions are largely due to habitat loss through cropland development in the east114 and through conversion of grasslands to desert shrub lands in the southwest115. The black-tailed prairie dog appears to be widely distributed throughout its historic range in Wyoming, generally in disconnected populations across the shortgrass prairie in the eastern half of the state. Xxxx (2003) estimated 125,000 acres (51,000 ha) of black-tailed prairie dog occupied habitat statewide in 106 Xxxxxx (1993) 107 Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxx (2001) 108 ibid 109 Xxxxx (1989), Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxx (2001), Xxxxxxxx et al.

More recent estimates by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department indicate 213,174 acres (86,268 ha) of black-tailed prairie dog colonies are present in Wyoming. Of that, 102,725 acres (41,571 ha) are part of black-tailed prairie dog colonies classified as healthy (>50% active)116. Sylvatic plague, caused by a bacterium (Yersinia pestis), has resulted in notable declines in the State’s largest identified complex at the Thunder Basin National Grassland. The Wyoming population was estimated at 229,607 acres (92,919 ha) in 2007117.

  • How Are Distributions From a Traditional IRA Taxed for Federal Income Tax Purposes Amounts distributed to you are generally includable in your gross income in the taxable year you receive them and are taxable as ordinary income. To the extent, however, that any part of a distribution constitutes a return of your nondeductible contributions, it will not be included in your income. The amount of any distribution excludable from income is the portion that bears the same ratio as your aggregate non-deductible contributions bear to the balance of your Traditional IRA at the end of the year (calculated after adding back distributions during the year). For this purpose, all of your Traditional IRAs are treated as a single Traditional IRA. Furthermore, all distributions from a Traditional IRA during a taxable year are to be treated as one distribution. The aggregate amount of distributions excludable from income for all years cannot exceed the aggregate non-deductible contributions for all calendar years. You must elect the withholding treatment of your distribution, as described in paragraph 22 below. No distribution to you or anyone else from a Traditional IRA can qualify for capital gains treatment under the federal income tax laws. Similarly, you are not entitled to the special five- or ten-year averaging rule for lump-sum distributions that may be available to persons receiving distributions from certain other types of retirement plans. Historically, so-called “excess distributions” to you as well as “excess accumulations” remaining in your account as of your date of death were subject to additional taxes. These additional taxes no longer apply. Any distribution that is properly rolled over will not be includable in your gross income.

  • Traditional IRA-to-Xxxx XXX Conversions If you convert to a Xxxx XXX, the amount of the conversion from your Traditional IRA to your Xxxx XXX will be treated as a distribution for income tax purposes, and is includible in your gross income (except for any nondeductible contributions). Although the conversion amount generally is included in income, the 10 percent early distribution penalty tax will not apply to conversions from a Traditional IRA to a Xxxx XXX, regardless of whether you qualify for any exceptions to the 10 percent penalty tax. If you are required to take a required minimum distribution for the year, you must remove your required minimum distribution before converting your Traditional IRA.
