An Observation of Clostridium perfringens in Greater Sage-Grouse

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A. and Bildfell, Robert J.
Abstract:: Mortality due to infectious diseases is seldom reported in the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). A case of necrotic enteritis associated with Clostridium perfringens type A is described in a free-ranging adult male sage-grouse in eastern Oregon. Clostridial enteritis is known to cause outbreaks of mortality in various domestic and wild...

A meta-analysis of greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus nesting and brood rearing habitat

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Connelly, John W., and Schroeder, Michael A.
Abstract:: The distribution and range of the greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus have been reduced by 56% since the European settlement of western North America. Although there is an unprecedented effort to conserve the species, there is still considerable debate about the vegetation composition and structure required for nesting and brood-rearing habitat....

A Meta-Analysis of Lesser Prairie-Chicken Nesting and Brood-Rearing Habitats: Implications for Habitat Management

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Grisham, Blacke A., Boal, Clint W., and Haukos, David A.
Abstract:: The distribution and range of lesser prairie-chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) has been reduced by >90% since European settlement of the Great Plains of North America. Currently, lesser prairie-chickens occupy 3 general vegetation communities: sand sagebrush (Artemisia filifolia), sand shinnery oak (Quercus havardii), and mixed-grass prairies juxtaposed with Conservation Reserve Program grasslands....

Habitat selection by Greater Sage-Grouse during winter in southeastern Oregon

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Willis, Mitchell J., Glenn, Elizabeth M., and Anthony, Robert G.
Abstract:: The distribution and geographic range of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) have been reduced by 56% since European settlement. Although loss and fragmentation of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) habitats have been cited as the primary causes for the decline of the species, degradation of existing habitat also has been considered an important...

Factors affecting female space use in ten populations of prairie chickens

Creator:: Winder, Virginia L., Carrlson, Kaylan M., Gregory, Andrew J., Hagen, Christian A., Haukos, David A., Kesler, Dylan C., Larsson, Lena C., Matthews, Ty W., McNew, Lance B., Patten, Michael A., Pitman, Jim C., Powell, Larkin A., Smith, Jennifer A., Thompson, Tom, Wolfe, Donald H., and Sandercock, Brett K.
Abstract:: Conservation of wildlife depends on an understanding of the interactions between animal movements and key landscape factors. Habitat requirements of wide-ranging species often vary spatially, but quantitative assessment of variation among replicated studies at multiple sites is rare. We investigated patterns of space use for 10 populations of two closely...

Lesser prairie-chicken brood habitat in sand sagebrush: invertebrate biomass and vegetation

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Salter, G. Curran, Pitman, James C., Robel, Robert J., and Applegate, Roger D.
Abstract:: Invertebrates are an important food source for grouse chicks, especially within the first 2 weeks of life. Invertebrate abundance is highly patchy and dependent upon herbaceous cover and vegetation structure. We examined the relationship between invertebrate biomass (from sweepnet samples) and habitat structure at lesser prairie-chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) brood-use and...

Regional variation in mtDNA of the lesser prairie-chicken

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Pitman, James C., Sandercock, Brett K., Wolfe, Don H., Robel, Robert J., Applegate, Roger D., and Oyler-McCance, Sara J.
Abstract:: Cumulative loss of habitat and long-term decline in the populations of the Lesser Prairie-Chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) have led to concerns for the species’ viability throughout its range in the southern Great Plains. For more efficient conservation past and present distributions of genetic variation need to be understood. We examined the...

Gender identification and growth of juvenile lesser prairie-chickens

Creator:: Pitman, James C., Hagen, Christian A., Robel, Robert J., Loughlin, Thomas M., and Applegate, Roger D.
Abstract:: The ability to ascertain gender and age of juvenile grouse is essential for determining gender-specific population age structure and studying timing of reproductive events, respectively. We examined outer rectrix feathers from juvenile Lesser Prairie-Chickens (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) captured at 30–40 and 50–60 days post-hatching. Blood samples were collected from most chicks...

Internal helminth parasites of the lesser prairie-chicken Tympanuchus pallidicinctus in southwestern Kansas: incidence, burden, and effects

Creator:: Robel, Robert J., Walker, Thomas L. Jr, Hagen, Christian A., Ridley, Robert K., Kemp, Kenneth E., and Applegate, Roger D.
Abstract:: We conducted a 3-year study of helminth parasites to assess their effect on the lesser prairie-chicken Tympanuchus pallidicinctus. Helminth parasites were found in most of the examined wild prairie chicken carcasses: 95% had eye worm Oxyspirura petrowi, 92% had stomach worm Tetrameres sp., and 59% had caecal worm Subulura sp....
