Important Note to Users:

From 1961-2001, estimates of waterfowl harvest, waterfowl hunter participation, and

waterfowl hunter success in the United States were derived from a combination of

several sources: 1) sales of migratory bird conservation stamps (Duck Stamps), 2) a

Mail Questionnaire Survey of individuals who purchased ducks stamps for hunting

purposes, and 3) the Waterfowl Parts Collection Survey (PCS). This survey, which was

based on duck stamp sales was discontinued after the 2001 hunting season. 

Beginning in 1999, new survey methods were implemented that obtained estimates of

waterfowl harvest, hunter participation, and hunter success from: 1) States' lists of

migratory bird hunters identified through the Harvest Information Program (HIP), 2) a

questionnaire (HIP Survey) sent to a sample of those hunters, and 3) the Waterfowl

PCS. The basic difference is that during 1961 - 2001 waterfowl hunter activity and

harvest estimates were derived from a Mail Questionnaire Survey (MQS) of duck stamp

purchasers, whereas from 1999 to the present those estimates were derived from HIP

surveys of people identified as migratory bird hunters by the States. Both survey

systems relied on the Waterfowl PCS for species composition data.

During 1989-2002, migratory game bird harvest and population survey information in

the Central Flyway was presented in annually updated Data Books. Because of the

recently implemented changes in survey design, historical harvest estimates will not be

directly comparable to current estimates. Therefore, previous harvest survey

information derived from the MQS are considered as final and compiled in the Central

Flyway Waterfowl Hunting and Harvest Survey Information, 1961-2001. 

For 1999 and subsequent years, waterfowl hunting and harvest estimates that are

derived from HIP, along with the usual population survey information, will be compiled in

annual updates of the Central Flyway Harvest and Population Survey Data Book. In the

future, the annual Data Book will be expanded to also present annual hunter activity and

harvest estimates for other migratory game bird species that are now derived from HIP

surveys.

2 Harvest Information Program (HIP) or a point-of-sale electronic record (without cost) used to identify crane hunters in lieu of a special

 sandhill crane hunting permit

3

 States began charging a fee for crane hunting permits which reduces the number of permits issued to hunters that only

 occasionally come into contact with sandhill cranes. 4 NM uses a combination of electronic and paper permits.

5

 SD uses a special question in their HIP questoinnaire to identify sandhill crane hunters; TX hunters can only obtain crane permits in selected locations.

1 Since 1997, Mid-continent white-fronted geese have been considered one population, officially surveyed during 

 Fall (September) in Saskatchewan and Alberta.

2 Surveys in Mexico have been conducted at 3-year intervals since 1981-82. For estimation of 3-year averages after 

 1980/81-1982/83 we used the most recent Mexico count. Mexico data entries include white-fronts counted in the 

 Interior Highlands (traditional areas) and East Coast Surveys. 

 In 2003, no survey conducted on East Coast. 

 Column entries reflect official December surveys (when available) from 1969/70 to 1997/98. 

 Subsequent entries reflect January surveys.

3 In TX, traditional Mid Dec. cruise count not completed, WFG geese based on transect in Jan.

1 Column entries reflect official December surveys (when available) from 1969/70 to 1997/98. December surveys and the separation of MF wintering Canada

 geese into populations were discontinued after December 1997. Subsequent entries reflect January surveys.

2 Column entries reflect January counts (when available) which are the official counts for these populations or population segments. 

3 Beginning in 1998/99, estimates of TGP and SGP Canada geese are based on newly defined wintering range boundaries. 

 4 Surveys in Mexico have been conducted at 3-year intervals since 1981-82. For estimation of 3-year averages after 1980/81-1982/83, we used the most recent 

 Mexico count. Estimates of TGP geese in this column include only geese counted on the East Coast survey (not counted in 2003).

1 From 1969/70 to 1997/98 light geese were surveyed in Mid-December except in Mexico (January). After 1997, Mid-December 

 surveys were discontinued and all subsequent surveys were conducted in January.

2 Surveys in Mexico have been conducted at 3-year intervals since 1981-82. For estimation of 3-year averages after 1980/81-1982/83, 

 we used the most recent Mexico count. Estimates of WCF geese in this column include only those geese counted in traditional 

 survey areas within the Interior Highlands.

3 *In 2002, traditional Mid Dec. cruise count not completed in TX, Light goose estimate based on transect in Jan.

4 Mississippi changed to a transect survey in Zone 1, only counted mallards and unidentified ducks.

5 In 2007, TX was unable to complete their traditional coastal Dec. survey, light geese were counted in January.

1

 Incomplete survey efforts in years prior might have resulted in lower estimates; the official count begins in 1997.

2

 In October 1997, a special survey was also conducted in the SLV, Colorado and other areas, which resulted in a total 

 of 27,090 Rocky Mountain and Mid-Continent cranes being counted.

3

 In 2006, the survey was not conducted due to mechanical issues with the survey plane. The 3-yr Avg for 2006 is calculated using 2003-05. 07/13/10

4

 The 3-yr average for 2007 was calculated using 2004, 2005, and 2007 because there was no survey in 2006.

5

 The 3-yr average for 2008 was calculated using 2005, 2007, and 2008 because there was no survey in 2006. S:\CF_D\projects\CRANES\Status Reports\Shcranerep.xls
