. Distribution, habitat selection and survival of transplanted Columbian sharp-tailed grouse (Tympanuchus phasianellus columbianus) in the Tobacco Valley, Montana. Sharp-tailed grouse; Sharp-tailed grouse. 18 km north of dancing ground A (Ground C, Figure 2). A total of 12 males were documented on the new ground and an additional 10 were displaying on ground A. This was a near three-fold increase in the number of known dancing males from 1990. Figure 5. Maximum number of grouse observed on 3 dancing grounds (DG A, DG B, and DG C) from 1969 to 1991.

Mean survival was % from 1988 to 1991 (survival data from 1988-1989 collected by M. Wood, Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks) (Figure 6). Low survival of the 1987 year-class in 1988 could possibly be due to minimal observation time that occurred that year; no 1987-birds were observed after.
