Book Synopsis Winter Food Habits and Diet Quality of Ruffed Grouse (Bonasa Umbellus) in Eastern Kentucky and South-central Ohio by : Brandon McKinley Scurlock
Book excerpt: The foraging period required to attain sufficient nutrients for adequate body condition when dependent on a leafy diet may predispose ruffed grouse to high levels of predation and mortality related to exposure. Management that promote plants high in protein and ME which afford short foraging periods are recommended as ways to locally enhance ruffed grouse populations.
