• <br />P~` <br />~ Wildlife is an important secondary use, with these soils best suited for <br />"ii <br />openland wildlife. Habitat favorable for ring-necked pheasants, mourning <br />doves and many non-game species can be developed by establishing wildlife <br />areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, the inclusion of <br />undisturbed nesting cover is vital and should be included in plans for <br />habitat development. This is especially true in areas of intensive <br />agriculture. <br />i Rapid expansion of the Greeley and surrounding area has resulted in urbani- <br />zation of much of this Otero soil. It has excellent potential for urban <br />and recreational development::.^Its:primary limiting_~feature.-is the moder-. <br />ately rapid permeability in the"substratum and the hazard of contamination <br />of ground water from sewage lagoons.
