Ecology, Conservation and Management of Grouse. Studies in Avian Biology no.39

Members of the grouse family, ranging from Ptarmigan and Capercaillie through to the Prairie Chickens and Sage Grouse occur right across the Northern Hemisphere. Economically important and with vast areas of land managed to boost their numbers it comes as no surprise that much work has been done studying all aspects of their life cycles. This volume, from Universty of California Press, presents many papers with a predominantly American focus, but with many conclusions relevant for anyone working on grouse.
