Sage Grouse are already protected in Colorado and 1/3 of the state is public land and all the species of Grouse here have plenty of room. Ranches provide even better habitat as hunting pressure is lower on ranches.
Leave us alone, we can make these decisions just fine on our own. We’ve got Blue, Dusky, Sage, Gunnison, etc. These are just localized populations that are inbred. It’s perfectly natural that some species of these go away.
Leave nature alone as much as possible, you frickin’ busybodies.
Well said, keep the feds out of it.
