To Larry's point, if you are private land owner and you have sharp-tailed grouse on your property-Congratulations! You are special, and guard your farm or ranch with all you have. I suggest looking into a conservation easement, and/or a farmbill program that fits your long term goals. Manage your grassland per what you local biologist recommends, and enjoy !
Awesome advice! Grassland habitat conservation is such a dynamic conservation topic, and our grassland habitats and species are occupying a mere percent of their former range. Every acre counts big time! Thanks for the post Scott Schaeffer!
Wow! That is sad to hear. Is this part of the new pipeline? In Wisconsin, that would certainly be something to take up with the State Government, as the Sharp-tail population status is under review. The lottery-based hunting season on them has been suspended due to poor reproductive success lately (in part).
