Abstract
- Greater prairie-chickens are flightless birds which live in the open grasslands of the central United States. They are members of the grouse family of gamebirds and used to be abundant on the plains. In the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, hunting and habitat destruction have caused a drop in the population of these birds.
