Description:
Abstract:
the Wild Pheasant Recovery Areas were identified through the use of spatial analysis factoring in known pheasant habitat needs to identify areas large enough to perhaps support a wild pheasant population provided hunting for them in these areas was restricted to allow them a chance to thrive. These areas are monitored to determine the success of the program. For more information
Purpose:
Wild Pheasant Recovery Areas (WPRA) are areas designated by the Pennsylvania Game Commission for the release of wild pheasants that are trapped in western states and transferred to Pennsylvania. The goal of a WPRA is to establish a sustainable wild pheasant population that can be hunted.
