❌ Ruffed grouse populations have dropped by more than 50% in the last 50 years. ❌ Woodcock habitat is disappearing. ❌ Without active forest management, hunting as we know it is at risk. The Ruffed Grouse Society is fighting back, but we need more hunters who care. Your membership directly funds habitat restoration, policy advocacy, and boots-on-the-ground conservation. The problem is real. The solution is in your hands. Join today and be the difference. | Ruffed Grouse Society & American Woodcoc
