Sage-grouse have been a continuing concern for several western states as their habitat has been decreasing in recent years. The state of Wyoming has made a strong push to keep the sage-grouse from appearing on the endangered species list. Wyoming's efforts were recognized by U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar.
According to a press release from the office of Governor Matt Mead, Wyoming was one of 17 recipients of a Partners in Conservation Award.
Game & Fish Needs Sage Grouse Wings
With some environmental groups keeping a very close watch on the population numbers of sage grouse in Wyoming, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department is asking hunters to lend a hand, or wing, in keeping accurate figures. The sage grouse hunting season opens Saturday, Sept. 17 and hunters are being urged to deposit one wing from harvested bird in sage grouse wing barrels so data can be collected.
