Both can be seen running about in the forests and plains of Prescott, Prescott Valley and Chino Valley. In fact, the proliferation of the Prescott area Pronghorn have led efforts by city officials to “share the wealth”, or success, with neighboring counties. Shortages due to human habitation have caused some Pronghorn populations to dwindle in southern Arizona. Relocation of several dozen Pronghorn may have a positive impact on other herds. Locals are split in their views as many enjoy the presence of North America’s fastest land animal.
