Kansas pheasant season returns with growth in upland birds
The annual pheasant hunting opener marks a Kansas tradition as warm winter and spring moisture improve pheasant and quail numbers after drought declines. About 60,000 hunters statewide are expected, spending roughly 150 dollars daily and boosting the economy by about 400 million dollars. Safety levels have improved with fewer accidents over the past decade, though handgun-owners born after 1957 face no required safety training.

Centrist Republicans gained control of the House and Senate, Democrats rose modestly but remain in the minority, and court retention failed to flip despite heavy spending. State finance and school funding loom large for the next session.
