What's the deal with Grasslands?

Surveys show that Americans don't really know about or appreciate our grasslands.  Grasslands are some of our most overlooked, but they need our help and attention.  Wenfei Tong from Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Maggie Hanna with Bird Conservancy of the Rockies tell us all about grasslands and birds.
