[QUOTE="Pasty, post: 5833410, member: 1651"] It will probably never be proven but pheasants are highly prone to ground predators and are plenty stupid too. Also harvest machinery. I would put good money on them becoming extinct in the UK if none were put down for 5 years or so. If you think about it, a shoot puts down 10,000 and shoots 5000, how many of the rest do you see trotting about in the summer? How many cock birds do you see with proper spurs? I speak as someone who not only raised and released chicks on a small syndicate but also worked on a large estate in Devon. [/QUOTE]
