<p>So far, <span class="taxon"><em>Zonotrichia leucophrys</em></span> has not required any management. While practices as logging seem to disturb many species of birds, this practice actually has provided the white-crowned sparrow with new habitats (bare ground and grasslands for easy foraging) (Chilton et al. 1995). Cattle grazing has proven to be the only deterrent of this species' habitat requirements (Knopf et al. 1988).</p>  <p><strong>IUCN Red List: </strong>Least Concern</p><p><strong>US Migratory Bird Act: </strong>Protected</p><p><strong>US Federal List: </strong>No special status</p><p><strong>CITES: </strong>No special status</p><p><strong>State of Michigan List: </strong>No special status</p>
