Raptors are the number one predator of grouse. 

Some studies show that coyote help by way of controlling the other small predators. 

Aspen is a small part of what they feed on, more important in winter. They also do better in areas with deeper snow cover when they can tunnel down to feed safely. 

Proper cover is key. 

Ny and Nj will never improve because of forever wild. 

Like every.other species pocket will and can improve but it up to landowners.. most like to see 100 plus yards through a woods.. not very.healthy woods for anything and add to that the hi-grading of about 90 % of private lands and habitat for many species is at great risk.
