45 Years of Ring-necked Pheasant Observations

Ring-necked Pheasants are a nonnative species brought to Wisconsin in 1916 as a game bird. Management at Goose Pond has primarily focused on the restoration of native habitat to support native species, though pheasants also benefit from these practices.
