It is also used by livestock, and the leaves are eaten by rabbits.
Purshia tridentata, commonly known as bitterbrush, is a deciduous shrub native to mountainous areas of western North America. It grows to a height of 1–5 metres and has many branches and slender green, three- to five-lobed leaves 5–20 millimetres long. The flowers are pale yellow, with five petals 6–8 mm long, and darker yellow anthers. The fruit is a cluster of dry, slender, leathery achenes 0.6–2 centimetres long. It is found from southeastern British Columbia in the north, east to Montana and Wyoming, south to New Mexico, and west in California. It is an important forage plant for many game animals, including deer, and is also used by livestock.
