73 YEARS OF MIGRATORY BIRD CONSERVATION 

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. 

The 2019 estimates of migratory bird harvest and hunter activity for Canada were not 

available at the time of this printing. Canada is undertaking a revision of their harvest 

estimation methods, which should be completed sometime in 2021. Instead of 

footnoting all the tables to indicate that the estimates were not available, the lines for 

2019 estimates for Canada have simply been left blank, and will be filled in for the 2021 

Central Flyway Databook. This will result in less effort (e.g., adding and then deleting 

footnotes) in this publication and subsequent updates.

 Preliminary S:\CF_D\projects\speciesandpopulations\sandhillcranes\Status Reports\Shcranerep.xls K.L. Kruse 5-Jan-21 

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 questionnaire to identify sandhill crane hunters; TX hunters can only obtain crane permits in selected locations. 

6 All hunters put in stratum "did not hunt" or "no" in state HIP sample frame, so no estimate is available. 

7 Hunters name and address data not supplied, so no estimate is available.

1 Mid-December Goose Surveys were discontinued after December, 1997. S:\CF_D\Projects\Monitoring\MWS\GOOSESURVEY\GSESUM2010s.XLS 3/11/20 2 Yearly totals from 1983-84 to 1997-98 reflect Mid-December counts (when available) for TGP, EPP, and WP/GP Canada geese, W-CF and M-C light geese, and W-F geese; totals for Hi-line and SGP populations 

reflect Mid-winter Survey data. Counts from these time periods were designated as official counts by respective Management Plans. 

3 Starting in 2014, SGP and TGP populations have been combined into one population: Central Flyway Arctic Nesting (CFAN) Canada Geese. For the MWS they will be split out by West Tier and East Tier segments.

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. Mexico surveys have not been conducted since 2005.

 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 Ja 

4 Survey was not completed in Fall 2013 due to the US Federal Gov't Shutdown. Used previous 3 yr average. 

5 Three-year average only contains 2 years since the 2013 survey was not completed.

Starting in 2014, SGP and TGP populations have been combined into one population: Central Flyway Arctic Nesting

 (CFAN) Canada Geese with a minimum population objective of 1 million birds based on a Lincoln index for the fall 

 population. For the MWS they will be split out by West Tier and East Tier goose hunting zones. SGP and TGP historic

 counts can be found in the CF MWS 2013 report. Desired winter abundance is 350,000 (150,000 west-tier and 

 200,000 east-tier).

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.The tri-annual survey in Mexico has not been conducted since 2006 due to safety concerns. 

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.

2 A proportion of the Alaskan harvest is composed of lesser sandhill cranes from the Pacific Coast Population 

3 Harvest data are from state harvest surveys for only the MCP portion of the state, except in 1977-81, 1986, 1991, and 1998-99 where 

federal MQS state totals are prorated by the long-term percent MC cranes; data from 2000 forward are MC portion from HIP. 

4

 The MC harvest for AZ and NM represents MC sandhill cranes that were harvested in RMP areas and are not represented in the CF MC Sandhill Crane Federal Harvest Survey 

5

 Minnesota initiated a hunt in the NW portion of state. 

6

 All hunters put in stratum "did not hunt" or "no" in state HIP sample frame, so no estimate is available. 

7

 HIP sample frame from state was incomplete, so no estimate was calculated. 

* No estimate is available.

2 Unknown harvests (Mexico) were assumed to be 10% of harvests in the U.S. and Canada. 

3 Unretrieved kill as reported by hunters is used for the Central Flyway; for the remainder of harvest areas, it is assumed to be

 20% of retrieved harvests. 

4

 There is no estimate available for AK in that year. 

5

 Estimates (except Canada) biased low because of HIP sampling issues in SD and AK that resulted in estimates of zero harvest for each. 

6

 Estimates for Canada, Mexico, North America, and Total not calculated because data for Canada was not available.

Fall pre-migration population indices for Rocky Mountain sandhill cranes. 

1

 Incomplete survey efforts in years prior might have resulted in lower estimates; the official count begins in 11/10/20

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. 

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. 

6

 Beginning 1n 2016 Wyoming added six new survey areas as allowed in the management plan.
