This state's classification carries no date range for the species.
Does not appear in WY Chapter 11.Historical range touches extreme NE Wyoming (Black Hills-adjacent counties) at its western edge, but WGFD's current upland regulation has no season/hunt-area listing for the species.
No wild Wyoming population exists to map. WGFD's own official State Bird List (a joint WBRC/eBird/WGFD/WYNDD product) classifies greater prairie-chicken's Wyoming status as 'Vagrant' and flags it with the list's Hypothetical marker, 'credibly reported from Wyoming but not yet documented to and accepted by the WBRC,' meaning even individual occurrences lack a confirmed record, let alone an established breeding population. The species is entirely absent from WY Chapter 11's hunting regulations, and its historical range only grazes Wyoming's extreme northeast (Black Hills-adjacent Weston/Crook counties) at the western edge of Nebraska's and South Dakota's core range. That historical-edge corner is not named as a destination.
No formal population survey program exists for this species in this state.
