The sage grouse is considered endangered primarily due to habitat loss and fragmentation caused by agricultural development, urbanization, and energy extraction activities such as oil and gas drilling. Additionally, invasive plant species have altered their natural habitats, while climate change has further impacted their breeding and foraging grounds. These factors have significantly reduced their population numbers and distribution, leading to their endangered status. Conservation efforts are ongoing to protect their habitats and promote recovery.
