One of the major factors contributing to the habitat loss was the widespread planting, beginning in the early 1900s, of Chinese tallow trees (<i><a href="/wiki/Triadica_sebifera" title="Triadica sebifera">Triadica sebifera</a></i>) to establish a <a href="/wiki/Soapmaking" class="mw-redirect" title="Soapmaking">soapmaking</a> industry.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Since that time, <i>T. sebifera</i> has proven to be an aggressive invader of the coastal grasslands, where it displaces the diverse native plant assemblage that was dominated by prairie grasses and <a href="/wiki/Forb" title="Forb">forbs</a> with dense, near-monospecific stands that significantly alter biotic and abiotic ecosystem processes.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Coastal prairies have also declined with the invasion of non-native grasses such as Old World bluestems which create monocultures and change the structure of native grasslands. Urbanization has further contributed to habitat loss. As a result of these changes over the last 100 years, the grassland ecosystem where Attwater's prairie-chicken once thrived exists in small, scattered patches whose continued existence is threatened. Where once grazing <a href="/wiki/Plains_bison" title="Plains bison">plains bison</a> and periodic <a href="/wiki/Wildfire" title="Wildfire">wildfires</a> due to lightning reduced brush, the birds now have difficulty making their way through thick undergrowth.
