Increase of Hungarian Partridge in Chippewa County
About 90 Hungarian partridge were seen in Chippewa County within 10 miles of the original release site by Conservation Department workers in February 1954. Reports show 50 to 60 birds near Sault Ste. Marie in December, with additional sightings in February, March and April. Farmers noted many partridge broods during last summer haying. The birds released two years ago came from Ontario in exchange for Michigan sharptail grouse. The aim is range expansion for more game in Michigan and Ontario.
