The ring-necked pheasant was a very popular game bird at one time but now only exists through state stocking programs and private shooting preserves. This non-native bird was released across North America in the 1800s and early 1900s. In 1968, approximately 272,000 hunters harvested 521,000 pheasants but the bird population started falling in the 1970s. The decline has continued and is basically caused by a lack of good habitat.
