It’s totally due to human interactions that they’ve been reducing in numbers. There are tough projections of skin on their feet, this helps them to walk through the snow. Winter diet is mostly leaves and seeds, also waste grain in agricultural fields. The ground-dwelling Attwater's Prairie Chicken is a medium-sized grouse, with brown, black and buff-colored feathers. 1 Since then, its numbers have declined steeply, up to 70-90 percent among some populations in the United States and Canada.
