A Greater Sage-Grouse hen. Sage-grouse are important indicators of habitat distrubance threshholds for wildlife and in most of the West, as well as Wyoming which holds the best habitat left, they are in decline. The BLM has been allowing oil and gas drilling to proceed in sage-grouse habitat. Photo by Franz Camenzind.
