Ruffed Grouse, The King of Spring, the Bellwether of All Forest Wildlife, has a very fragile future. According to the Ruffed Grouse Society, their populations have declined at least 50% throughout the Eastern United States in the last 20 years and current projections indicate numbers will be zero in our lifetime. So please, join us as we introduce the Give for Grouse Initiative and work to bring ruffed grouse back to our forests. Your donations will be earmarked strictly for ruffed grouse management projects. We will take your dollars and distribute them to groups and organizations all across the ruffed grouse’s range for equipment, land acquisition, advocation, and whatever it takes to make this a reality. For our first project with the Give for Grouse Initiative, we’re hoping to raise $2,000 that we can donate to Ruffed Grouse Society Chapters and biologists for purchase of prescribed fire equipment and gear to use on controlled burns in ruffed grouse habitat. Things like drip torches, sprayers, PPE, and other fire equipment to create optimal habitat for ruffed grouse!
