Species at Risk Act, recovery strategy series Issued also in French under title: Programme de rétablissement du tétras des armoises de la sous-espèce phaios (Centrocercus urophasianus phaios) au Canada. Cover title. Document developed by: Darcy Henderson, Matt Huntley, and Kella Sadler. Cf. Acknowledgments. Includes bibliographical references. "The Greater Sage-Grouse phaios was designated as Extirpated by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) in 1997 and was subsequently listed as Extirpated in Canada on Schedule 1 of the federal Species at Risk Act as of 2003. The only Canadian distribution of this subspecies was the extreme southern end of the Okanagan and Similkameen valleys in south-central British Columbia. Recovery in Canada is not considered biologically and technically feasible at this time. There is insufficient quantity and unsuitable quality of habitat in Canada, very low likelihood of restoring brood-rearing habitat in Canada, and very low likelihood of agreement with the United States to supply birds for translocation into these sub-optimal conditions and contrary to their existing priorities under the Sage Grouse Initiative. Recovery feasibility may be revisited if relict populations are discovered”--Executive summary, p. iii. gccst Endangered species gccst Birds gccst Nature conservation Huntley, Matt.
