The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1908-02-20

"The Introduction of the China,
or Denny Pheasant, in Oregon,
With Notes on the Native Grouse"
is the title of book written by
Prof. w. T. Shaw, department OF
zoology, state college, the manu-
script now being in the hands OF
the printer. Within the next few
weeks the new publication will be
distributed throughout the Pacific
northwest. The book is beautifully
illustrated, and tells the struggles
of this beautiful bird when taken
from its habitat in Asia to become
acclimatized to the new conditions
found in America. In Oregon the
pheasants were protected by the
state legislature for ten years, and
at the present time, during the
open season, a hunter may kill ten
of them per day. Notwithstanding
this they seem to be holding their
own. They are an ornamental
bird, snowy and attractive, and
fine game, being alert, vigorous
and wary. Prof. Shaw says that
the China pheasant has so we'll
succeeded in acclimatizing itself to
the Pacific northwest that, with the
observance of the law on the part
of hunters, in a very few years it
will be well established in it's new
home.
