The pheasant kill on opening day
of upland game season was better
than expected throughout all the
normal pheasant range. This informa-
tion was obtained by game protectors
of the Ohio Division of Wildlife and
analyzed by William R. Edwards,
game management biologist.
AS was previously expected, the
rabbit population was down from 20
to % per cent over most of the state
with a few scattered areas reporting
fair to good rabbit shooting.
Edwards said at least one factor
was instrumental in providing better
pheasant shooting. Most of the corn
had been picked an likewise the soy
beans over much of the pheasant
range had been harvested, thus MAX
ing it more difficult for game to
hide. This forced the birds into the
open, making them available to
hunters.

Ohio Pheasant Hunting Better Than
Anticipated, Wildlife DiUisiOn Says

$3.50 pheasant program which was
initiated this year with sportsmen's
clubs participating, apparently had
some effect on the pheasant harvest
in number of counties. Some of the
counties which enjoyed considerable
sport from these birds were: Jeffer-
son, Scioto, Knox, Mahoning, De-
fiance, Putnam and others.
Ohio's many public hunting areas
continue to be as popular as indicated
by the thousands who checked in
during the first several days. On the
highly popular Delaware Reservoir
Public Hunting Area, some 27O0 hunt
ers checked in during the first day
and they were rewarded with 1856
pheasants and 954 rabbits.
Approximately 1000 gunners bag
ged more than 600 pheasants on the
Killdeer Plains Public Hunting Area
and 700 sportsmeni harvested 25O
birds on the Maumee Forest. These
