[Archive] Woodland management for pheasants

This Bulletin summarises the findings of a 3-year study sponsored by the Forestry Commission and carried out by the Game Conservancy. The study undertook to quantify habitat requirements of pheasants, to assess the benefits or disadvantages to pheasants of different forms of woodland management and to investigate the effects of managing woods for pheasants on other wildlife. The Bulletin aims to present management guidelines that will benefit not just winter populations, but also increase natural breeding densities of wild pheasants.
