I don't even hunt 'wild' pheasants around here anymore, predators have really reduced the numbers. Coyotes, fox, and raptors all have increased, along with tilling right up to the ditches and mowing the ditches, doesn't leave a lot of habitat for wild birds around here. Since moving to Wisconsin 25 years ago, I have shot exactly one wild rooster, on the family farm. (SWMBO's family; I'm originally from MN.)
