The first edition of the National Wild Pheasant Conservation Plan was adopted by the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies in September 2014. Several interrelated partnerships and positions were created to implement the National Plan, including the National Wild Pheasant Conservation Plan Management Board, the National Wild Pheasant Technical Committee, and the National Wild Pheasant Conservation Plan Coordinator.
The second edition of the National Plan was adopted by the Management Board on July 26, 2021.
Our collective mission is to foster science-based, socially-supported policies and programs that enhance wild pheasant populations, provide recreational opportunities to pheasant hunters, and support the economics and social values of communities.
