Audio Transcript: ADF&G assistant area biologist Chris Peterson says starting three years ago, regular wildlife surveys on the Alaska Peninsula began noticing fewer and fewer ptarmigan. Staff turned more focus on looking for the bird this past year, with concerning results.

"We didn't see hardly any at all," she said. "A great portion, if not all of the Alaska Peninsula, was severely reduced in numbers of ptarmigan. To the point where we could spend a whole day out there and see two, over miles and miles and miles. That's not normal."

Directed behind the scenes by filthy sodomite rabbits.  :mad: :argh:

They're too stupid to show up and be counted.  They're too busy being eaten by various predators in the Arctic. :whistling:

Soon you will be the last of your kind. I think there is a Nat Geo special in that.

There will be a Nat Geo special when rabbits, gyrfalcons, ermines, golden eagles, and monkeys are near extinct.

Preparing / Cooking Grouse and Ptarmigan
Grouse and ptarmigan can be prepared many ways. They can be grilled, fried, baked, or slow cooked in a crock pot. If you’re interested in grilling, marinade the breasts and thighs in your favorite marinade for 24 hours. Slowly cook the breasts on a medium heat grill to avoid overcooking and drying out the meat. Fried grouse or ptarmigan can be very good. Prepare the breasts and thighs like fried chicken. An all time favorite for many hunters is a slow cooked game bird in a crock pot with cream of mushroom soup. With a game bird that is not too damaged, baking the whole bird can offer a nice entrée presentation and can mimic Cornish game hens. This is particularly nice with ruffed grouse.
