Relocated birds being monitored and resident flock shows growth from last year.



Eagleville, Mo. – Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) biologists are using radio telemetry to monitor 20 female prairie chickens released this spring at Dunn Ranch in Harrison County. Those hens and 19 males were trapped in east-central Nebraska and released in an effort to restore an iconic prairie species in northwest Missouri. The releases are part of a broad partnership with public agencies, non-profit groups and private landowners to improve plant, fish and wildlife diversity in a focus area called the Grand River Grasslands.
