The lesser prairie chicken is in danger primarily due to habitat loss caused by agricultural expansion, urban development, and energy production, which have fragmented its native grassland ecosystems. Additionally, climate change poses further threats by altering its habitat and food sources. These factors, combined with predation and competition from invasive species, have led to significant declines in their population, prompting conservation efforts to protect and restore their habitats.
