Document library of voluntary conservation agreements for the lesser prairie-chicken.

For over two decades, we've been working with our federal, state and private partners to facilitate the conservation of the lesser prairie-chicken and its habitat. These partnerships have resulted in a number of conservation efforts for the lesser prairie-chicken. 

These efforts include the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies' Range-wide Plan and associated Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances for oil and gas and U.S. Department of Agriculture programs such as the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Working Lands for Wildlife Lesser Prairie-Chicken Initiative and Farm Service Agency (FSA) Conservation Reserve Program. In addition, there are numerous conservation efforts being led by state and regional programs.
