No, western meadowlarks are currently not listed as endangered. However, their populations have been declining due to habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change, making conservation efforts important to ensure their survival in the future.
Meadowlarks are usually found in open grasslands.
I love meadowlarks.
Geographic isolation.
Ecological isolation occurs between eastern and western meadowlarks, preventing interbreeding. Their different habitats and behaviors keep them geographically separated, reducing the chance of gene flow and hybridization.

Western Meadowlarks are endowed with brown/black backs and wings. They also have a yellow chest with a black V on it.
Western Meadowlarks typically have a life cycle that includes hatching from eggs in a nest, being raised by both parents, leaving the nest and learning to forage for food on their own, reaching sexual maturity around one year of age, and then finding a mate and reproducing. They can live up to 6-10 years in the wild.
Meadowlarks usually eat insects, though they will eat seeds and berries.
In the grasslands, owls and foxes eat meadowlarks.
