Sage Grouse Research Paper

Imagine having your home slowly being destroyed and you're population numbers going down,well thats whats happening to the Greater Sage Grouse. The Greater Sage Grouse a fascinating bird lives in the southern part of Canada and western parts of the United States. Their habitat is being destroyed by us, the human population. The Sage Grouse lives in sagebrush areas which are cold during the winter and hot during the summer a great place for them to migrate and to nest. The sagebrush provides habitat for many animals but most importantly to the Sage Grouse. Due to the usage by humans the sagebrush population has decreased and is very hard to bring back once it has been tampered with by humans. People should be aware to the decline of these animals because we are the ones who are causing it. The introduction of toxic plants to the area, crop lands and human developments that have been made have been declining the numbers of sagebrush thus bring the numbers of these birds down.Unless we get the Greater sage Grouse back on the endangered list the human race will be to blame for yet another extinction in the animal world. The Greater Sage Grouse should be put back on the list of an endangered species because we are to blame, they are an indicator of other animals health in the habitat and
Since these animals share the same habitat and have similar diets, it's most likely if one animal is declining so are the other animals. The animals who (word) are Pronghorn, Mule Deer,Pygmy Rabbit,Sagebrush Vole, and many other species. Due to the decrease in habitation the numbers of the Sage Grouse have gone down and sooner or later so will the population numbers of the other
