Attwater's Prairie Chicken Propagation: The Attwater's prairie chicken (APC) is a critically endangered grouse found in the coastal prairies of Texas. Currently, fewer than 100 birds exist at three locations. Efforts to propagate and release APCs into the wild have been ongoing since 1992. In an effort to attain the goals established in the draft APC Recovery Plan, the Abilene Zoo (Abilene, Texas) will continue to breed APCs in captivity to increase numbers in the wild.
