New State Game Policy Gains Support Across Pennsylvania
Harrisburg April 15 The Pennsylvania Game Commission reports its policy of overwintering mature birds for spring release is accelerating. About 4700 adult ringneck pheasants have been shipped from state game farms to district protectors for release in various counties, increasing the pheasant population. The policy aims to balance wild hens and has won broad approval from sportsmen groups statewide. The commission notes the season runs November 1 to 30 for male birds, while hens are protected by state game laws. The effort is expected to save thousands of mature birds from harsh winter and flood losses, and authorities urge hunters to guard against crows seen as a threat to game.
